Final Answer :
EMV (a1)= (0.1)(30)+ (0.6)(19)+ (0.3)(11)= $17.7 million.
EMV (a2)= (0.1)(20)+ (0.6)(21)+ (0.3)(23)= $21.5 million.
EMV (a3)= (0.1)(10)+ (0.6)(15)+ (0.3)(45)= $23.5 million.
Since the most favorable expected monetary value occurs for design a3 (thus,EMV* = $23.5 million),design a3 would be the best alternative under the EMV criterion.
