If the market is not favorable, they could lose $40,000. They can also decide not to pursue the venture. In the absence of any market data, the best guess is that there is a 50-50 chance the clinic will be successful. The physicians are approached by a market research firm that offers to perform a study of the market at a fee of $5,000. There is a 55% chance that the market study is favorable. The market researchers claim the following about their past performance: P(favorable market given a favorable study) = 0.82 P(favorable market given an unfavorable study) = 0.11 a. What is the EVPI? b. What is the expected value with the sample information (i.e., market study)? c. How much should the physicians be willing to pay for a market study? d. What is the efficiency of the sample information (3 decimals)?
