- Hudson Corporation is considering three options for managing its data warehouse: continuing with its own staff, hiring an outside vendor to do the managing, or using a combination of its own staff and an outside vendor. The cost of the operation depends on future demand. The annual cost of each option (in thousands of dollars) depends on demand as follows: If the demand probabilities are 0.2, 0.5, and 0.3, which decision alternative will minimize the expected cost of the data warehouse? What is the expected annual cost associated with that recommendation? Construct a risk profile for the optimal decision in part (a).

Wally Garcia, the vice president for marketing at Benchmark, has concluded from his market analysis that sales are dwindling for Benchmark's standard table because of aggressive pricing by competitors. Benchmark's table sells for P875 whereas the competition's comparable table is selling in the P80Q range. Garcia has determined that dropping price to P800 is necessary to regain the firm's annual market share of 10,000 tables. Cost data based on sales of 10,000 tables are: Budgeted Amount 400,000 sq. ft. 85,000 hrs. 30,000 hrs 320,000 hrs. Actual Amount Actual Cost 425,000 sq. ft. 100,000 hrs. 30,000 hrs. 320,000 hrs.
