Course of Action (Aj) Sell Soft Drinks (A1) xij = payoff (profit) for event i and action j Event (Ei) Cool Weather (E1) x11 =$50 x12 = $100 Warm Weather (E2) x21 = $200 x22 = $125 Sell Hot Dogs (A2)Payoff Table (Step 2):Do Some Actions Dominate?: Payoff Table (Step 2): Do Some Actions Dominate? Action A “dominates” action B if the payoff of action A is at least as high as that of action B under any event and is higher under at least one event. Action A is “inadmissible” if it is dominated by any other action(s). Inadmissible actions do not need to be considered. Non-dominated actions are called “admissible.”Payoff Table (Step 2):Do Some Actions Dominate?: Payoff Table (Step 2): Do Some Actions Dominate?
