Probability Analysis
A General Manger of Harley-Davidson has to decide on the size of a new facility. The GM has narrowed the choices to two: large facility or small facility. The company has collected information on the payoffs. It now has to decide which option is the best using probability analysis, the decision tree model, and expected monetary value.
Options:
| Facility | Demand Options | Probability | Actions | Expected Payoffs |
| Large | Low Demand | 0.4 | Do Nothing | ($10) |

| High Demand | 0.6 | $70 | ||
| Small | Low Demand | 0.4 | $40 | |
| High Demand | 0.6 | Do Nothing | $40 | |
| High Demand | 0.6 | Overtime | $50 | |
| High Demand | 0.6 | Expand | $55 |
