Hi,
I was working through the questions in this mock exam paper, and Q1 (b) (ii) with the regret matrix. I couldnt figure out how they came up with the result. Can you help? Thank you!
Hi trinistudent001
it took me so long to understand this minimax regret. But I finally figured it out.
in mock question, take the pay off table prepared in b(i): We now need to prepare a new table for minimax regret, so write the col headings etc. Then:
Line 1, chose the highest value. You need to ask yoursefl, if I chose the best option do I have any regrets? No. Then the value goes in as 0 for the fist one. Move on to next value and deduct 832000 from minus 1164800 which = 1996800. Then deduct 832000 from 2662400=3494400 and so on.
Now go to line 2, ask yourself. which is the highest value in original table? 2163200. So if I chose this then the regret is zero so firstly place that in its place. Now do as above, deducting the rest from this figure.
All this is doing is finding the difference between chosing the best decision and the rest. So fill out the whole table like this.
Then you will see that you have 3494400 to chose to minimise the the max regret.
Hope this helps. If not, I have a web address I can give you which helped me understand how this works.
Cheers and thanks again for the questions. they’ve been invaluable.Sorry forgot to say, once you prepare your 2nd table, you then need to chose between columns, the maximum regret value. In Kaplan answers, these were 8524400, 4492800 3494000 4160000. Then you chose the smallest one. I forgot to say this. becasue if you end up chosing the smallest one from the table itself, it would be wrong!
