Regina Reddy Mikks produces both interior paint and exterior paint from
raw materials M1, and M2. The probabilities that the demand of these
paints will go up, stay the same, or go down are 0.25, 0.30, and 0.45,
respectively. If the demand go up, the interior paint will net $30,000
and the exterior paint will net $10,000. If the demand remain
unchanged, Regina Reddy Mikks will (barely) break even. But if the
prices go down, the interior paint and exterior paint will sustain
losses of $35,000 and $5,000, respectively.
