What is the best decision of Penny as per criteria of realism? What is the EMV of that best decision (Assume a = 0.7) b. What is the best decision of Penny as per minimax regret criterion? What is the EMV of that best decision? [Clearly write down the intermediate Opportunity Loss Table(s) forthis part]
