Chapter 11.S, Problem 2DQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether the importance of unique-event risk increase or decrease when the probability of super-event risk increases.
Introduction:
Unique-event Risk:
In unique-event risk, the disruption occurs to only one supplier. When such phenomenon occurs, one supplier can be chosen over other suppliers. Selection of more than one supplier is necessary to overcome unique-event risk.
Super-event Risk:
The disruption rate to suppliers is high in super-event risk because all suppliers are affected in super-event risk. Chances for occurrence of super-event risks are very low. However firms must make proactive arrangement to overcome super-event risks.

Construct a risk analysis that examines the various forms of risk (technical,
commercial, financial etc) related to the creation of this office building

According to your assistant there are three options which merit consideration: A, B, and C. Moreover, there are three possible future conditions that must be included in the analysis: I, which has a probability of occurrence of .5; II, which has a probability of .3; and III, which has a probability of .2. If condition I materializes, A will cost $12,000, B will cost $20,000, and C will cost $16,000. If condition II materializes, the costs will be $15,000 for A, $18,000 for B, and $14,000 for C.
