The following payoff table shows the profit for a decision problem with two states of nature and two decision alternatives:

a. Suppose P ( s 1 ) = 0.2 and P ( s 2 ) = 0.8. What is the best decision using the expectedvalue approach
b. Perform sensitivity analysis on the payoffs for decision alternative d 1. Assume the probabilities are as given in part a, and find the range of payoffs under states of nature s 1 and s 2 that will keep the solution found in part a optimal. Is the solution more sensitive to the payoff under state of nature s 1 or s 2
