Learning Objectives
Students will be able to:
• List the steps of the decisionmaking process
• Describe the types of decisionmaking environments
• Use probability values to make
decisions under risk
• Make decisions under uncertainty,
where there is risk but probability
values are not known
• Use computers to solve basic
decision-making problems

Introduction
• Decision theory is an analytical
and systematic way to tackle
problems
• A good decision is based on
logic.

The Six Steps in
Decision Theory
1) Clearly define the problem at
hand
2) List the possible alternatives
3) Identify the possible outcomes
4) List the payoff or profit of
each combination of
alternatives and outcomes
5) Select one of the mathematical
decision theory models
6) Apply the model and make
your decision

Types of DecisionMaking Environments
• Type 1: Decision-making under
certainty
• decision-maker knows with certainty
the consequences of every alternative or
decision choice
• Type 2: Decision-making under risk
• The decision-maker does know the
probabilities of the various outcomes
• Decision-making under uncertainty
• The decision-maker does not know the
probabilities of the various outcomes

Marginal Analysis
• P = probability that demand is
greater that or equal to a given
supply
• 1-P = probability that demand will
be less than supply
• MP = marginal profit
• ML = marginal loss
• Optimal decision rule is:
P*MP  (1-P)*ML
• or
ML
P
MPML

Marginal Analysis Discrete Distributions
Steps using Discrete Distributions:
• Determine the value for P
• Construct a probability table and
add a cumulative probability column
• Keep ordering inventory as long as
the probability of selling at least one
additional unit is greater than P
