    Could you please tell me which of these is right:

    Project 1 project 2 project 3
    Contributions: (100) (300) (600)

    Regret table:
    Project 1 project 2 project 3
    (500) (300) 500

    I wrote figures from my mind.Is my logic correct: best option would be to choose project 1 as it is least to loose, therefore if we choose it, we gain 500 in compare with project 3.The same applies to other two.

    Or:

    Regret table:
    Project 1 project 2 project 3
    0 200 500
    Logic:if we choose project 1 we don’t regret for anything therefore it is 0, then project 2 is 200 worse (300 less 100),the same about project 3.

    The second one is correct.

    Have you watched my lectures on this? The lectures are a complete. free course for Paper F5. and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    Yes, I listened to them, but in one of my kit problems they do something similar to first way.
    Thank you.

    If it is a previous years BPP revision kit question, then there us one where they have done it all completely wrong!! (even though they happen in the end to make the correct decision).

    The only correct answer is the second one that you wrote out!
