Ans. #1

d
RATIONALE: Conditional probability refers to the probability of one event, given the known outcome of a (possibly) related event.

Ans. #2

a
RATIONALE: A special case of sample information where the information tells the decision maker exactly which state of nature is going to occur is known as perfect information.

Ans. #3

c
RATIONALE: The difference between the expected value associated with sample information about the states of nature and the expected value associated without sample information about the states of nature gives the required expected value of sample information as 2.17 million. In other words, conducting the market research study adds a value of 2.17 million.

Ans. #4

d
RATIONALE: Posterior probabilities refer to the probabilities of the states of nature after revising the prior probabilities based on sample information.

Ans. #5

b
RATIONALE: New information obtained through research or experimentation that enables an updating or revision of the state-of-nature probabilities is known as sample information.
