Analysis Week #5 Uncertainties and Decision Uncertainty becomes relevant to a decision problem when it is impossible to know which outcome will occur. This may be due to missing information, or because the outcome depends on other factors. Mark and Annie must have a method of dealing with uncertainty in their decision determine the expected value of potential outcomes. A decision tree is a method of assessing the preferred outcome where multiple sources of uncertainty may exist. As an analysis

Assets and liabilities are determined at present value. Present value of a firm computed under ideals of certainty represents very relevant and reliable information. There is no opportunity for abnormal earnings under ideal conditions of uncertainty. Since there is only one interest rate in the economy, the dividends don’t affect the present value.
