Amy Lloyd is interested in leasing a new car and has contacted three automobile dealers for pricing information. Each dealer offered Amy a closed-end 36 month lease with no down payment due at the time of signing. Each lease includes a monthly charge and a mileage allowance. Additional miles receive a surcharge on a perrmile basis. The monthly lease cost, the mileage allowance, and the cost for additional miles follow: Dea'e' "22:\" $533.; Add'irits);:le:llile Dealer A $294 36,000 $0.15 Dealer B $305 45,000 $0.20 Dealer c $320 54,000 $0.15 Amy decided to choose the lease option that will minimize her total 36~month cost. The difficulty is that Amy is not sure how many miles she will drive over the next three years. For purposes of this decision she believes it is reasonable to assume that she will drive 12,000 miles per year, 15,000 miles per year, or 18,000 miles per year. With this assumption Amy estimated her total costs for the three lease options. For example, she figures that the Dealer A lease will cost her $10,584 if he drives 12,000 miles per year, $11,934 if he drives 15,000 miles per year, or $13,284 if he drives 18,000 miles per year.

The recommended decision using the optimistic approach is . The recommended decision using the conservative approach is . The recommended decision using the minimax regret approach is . (d) Suppose that the probabilities that Amy drives 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 miles per year are 0.5, 0.4, and 0.1, respectively. What option should Amy choose using the expected value approach? EV(Dealer A) = $ EV(Dealer B) = $ EV(Dealer C) = $ The best decision is ---Select--- (e) Develop a risk profile for the decision selected in part (d).
