Mary decker is suing the manufacturer of her car because of a defect that she believes caused her to have an accident and kept her out of work for a year. she is suing the company for $3.5 million. the company has offered her a settlement of $700,000, of which mary would receive $600,000 after attorneys' fees. her attorney has advised her that she has a 50% chance of winning her case. if she loses she will incur attorneys' fees and court costs of $75,000. if she wins she is not guaranteed her full requested settlement. her attorney believes that if she wins, there is a 50% chance she could receive the full settlement, in which case mary would get $2 million after her attorney takes his cut and a 50% chance that the jury will award her a lesser amount of $1,000,000, of which mary would get $500,000. what is the payoff value in dollars if mary decided to sue?
