So in summary, the decision tree has: 1 ) An initial decision node with two options: non - refundable or cancellation 2 ) A chance

So in summary, the decision tree has:
1) An initial decision node with two options: non-refundable or cancellation
2) A chance node for the non-refundable option, with two branches representing needing the room or needing to cancel (but still paying $189 in either case)
3) A separate chance node for the cancellation option, with two branches representing needing the room ($209 cost) or canceling ($209 cost, but you can cancel)
You need to book the room now, because there is a good possibility the hotel could sell out if you wait. There is, however, some chance you will end up wanting to cancel the reservation. You will know if you need to cancel in time to do so, if you pay the extra amount to get free cancellation. If you book the non-refundable room, you will end up paying for the room whether you need it or not.
