Her alternatives are to buy 1 machine, 2 machines, or 3 machines. The profits realized under each alternative are a function of whether her proposal to bid for clothing the official Bandai team is accepted or not. The payoff table below illustrates the profits realized (in $000's) based on the different scenarios Cheryl faces. The probability that her proposal will be accepted is 65%.
