Explanation / Answer

A.

EMV of alternative 1 = .45*10000 + .55*30000 = $21000

EMV of alternative 2 = .45*4000 + .55*38000 = $22700

EMV of alternative 3 = .45*(-1500) + .55*50000 = $26825

Here, the greatest EMV is of alternative 3.

So, alternative that provides highest EMV is alternative 3.

EMV of this decision is $26825.

B.

EVwPI = .45*10000 + .55*50000 = $32000

C.

EVPI = EVwPI – EMV

EVPI = 32000-26825

EVPI = $5175
