The company management has calculated that 25 people must use this route each day for the company to break even. Management feels that there is a 30% chance that fewer than 50 people will use the route and 70% chance that 25 people or more will use the route. The following payoff values (in rupees) were developed over a one-month period and summarized in the table below. Payoff values in Rs Demand for early morning route Decision Fewer than 25 people use 25 people or more use the route the route Add one bus -500 8,000 Add two bus -3,000 4,500 Do not add bus 0 0 i) Determine management's optimal decision using (a) Maximax criterion [%] (b) Maximin criterion [%] (c) Equally likely criterion [%] (d) As the manager, you are realist and believe that the correct decision technique to determine the best alternative is to use a coefficient of realism of 0.85, calculate your criterion of realism.
