What alternative would be chosen according to expected value? b. The decision maker developed the following indifference probabilities. Find the utility value for each payoff. Payoff Probability 50 .60 20 35 10 .25 .22 .20 010 .18 025 .10 c. What alternative would be chosen according to expected utility? d. Does this decision maker behave like a risk taker or a risk avoider? For the payoff table below, the decision maker will use P(s,) = 0.30, P(s,) = 0.35, and P(s,) = 0.35.
