A complex airborne navigating system incorporates a sub-assembly which unrolls a map of the flight plane synchronously with the movement of the aero-plane. This sub- assembly is brought on very good terms from the sub-contractor , but is not always in perfect adjustment on delivery . The sub-assemblies can be re adjusted on to guarantee at the cost of SR 500 per sub-assembly . It is not, however, possible to distinguish visually those sub-assemblies that need adjustment. Alternatively , the sub-assemblies can each be tested electronically at a cost of SR100 per sub-assembly tested. Past experience shows that about 30% of those supplied are defective, the probability of the test indicating a bad adjustment when the sub-assembly is faulty is 0.8, while the probability that the test indicates a good adjustment when the sub-assembly is properly adjusted is 0.7. If the adjustments is not made and the sub-assembly is found to be faulty when the system has its final check, the cost of subsequent rectification will be Sr1400. Draw up an appropriate decision tree to show the alternatives open to the purchaser and use it to determine his appropriate course of action. Draw rhe decision tree.
