Greenwood Joinery may bid for a contract to supply 1000 doors for a new hotel and is
considering two possible bids either £90 per door or £120 per door. The company believes
that a bid of £90 per door has a 90% chance of winning the contract while a bid of £120 has a
30% chance of winning the contract. The contract includes a penalty cost of £15,000 for late
completion of the order. With existing operations, the production cost would be £70 per door
and there would be a 60% chance of the order being late. Hiring extra staff would increase
production cost to £80 per door, but would ensure that the order is completed on time. The
cost of preparing and submitting a bid is £500.
b) Draw a decision tree that models this problem and use it to determine the policy that the
company should adopt to maximise its expected profit. I

c) Suppose the penalty cost for late completion of the order is unknown. Determine the
range of values for this penalty cost for which the policy determined in (b) remains
optimal.
