ix Flags has been growing internationally as the global demand for amusement parks has enormous growth. One of the top contenders for the next international Six Flags location is in the suburbs of Barcelona, Spain. There are two potential locations within a 25 kilometer radius from central Barcelona. LOCATION 1 is north of the city and LOCATION 2 is to the west of Barcelona . In anticipation of the chosen location becoming a vacation destination and attracting many European tourists, a regional real estate development team is considering purchasing land in advance of the announcement in hopes of buying the land now (and eventually developing the area with hotels, restaurants, shops, etc). Of course, it is possible that Six Flags may decide on a completely different location (not near Barcelona) for their new amusement park location. If the real estate development team buys the land in one of the locations and Six Flags does not choose that option, the land will lose value and they will sell the land and not begin development. The real estate development group has three choices:
CHOICE 1: Purchase land at LOCATION 1
CHOICE 2: Purchase land at LOCATION 2
CHOICE 3: Do not purchase any land
The following data (all amounts are in millions of dollars) has been collected:
| SIX FLAGS SELECTS LOCATION 1 | SIX FLAGS SELECTS LOCATION 2 | |
| Current Purchase Price (pre-announcement) | 34 | 27 |
| Value of land if Six Flags decides to build park in that AREA (does not include purchase price/development) | 75 | 58 |
| Sale price if Six Flags announces that they will not built a park at that site | 19 | 16 |
Please provide detailed instructions on how to make a payoff table for this scenario.
