that a random person has the condition, which is 1 just 20 .)

Well, since event B is guaranteed to happen, we should look not at the whole sample space Ω , but at the smaller sample space consisting only of the sample points in B. What should the conditional probabilities

Sabor’s current position with regards to its supply source of Macronil, the main component for its air filtration units. We evaluate this using the Karljic matrix and his 4-phase methodology (Kraljic, 1983) as our theoretical framework and analyze the options available to Sabor Inc. using the case information and data provided. We then conclude with our goal of offering viable recommendations to Sabor, given the constraints, to better Sabor’s purchasing position in this situation. Current State
