Assume Costco wants to compete with large manufacturers of golf bags. Costco begins selling a new model of golf bag in its stores for $150. The bag comes with a coupon that customers may mail in to receive a free box of one dozen Kirkland (Costco's brand) golf balls. Each dozen golf balls cost Costco $9.50 to produce and $1.50 to mail to the customer. Kirkland estimates that 40% of the customers who buy a golf bag will mail in the coupon for the free golf balls. During the first quarter of 2020 Costco sold 12,000 golf bags. During that time, 1,000 customers mailed in their coupons and Costco sent them their golf balls.

The cost of introducing the products in selected geographic areas for gauging consumer response is $150K. If the company decides to introduce the product this way, it would need to see the responses to the products before they decide to launch the product line nationally. The probability of a favorable response in the selected geographical areas is estimated at O.60. La Comida can also decide not to go for the launching in the product in selected geographical areas and go ahead with the nationwide launch or not. If La Comida Foods decides to go full-blast in launching the products nationally and are a success, the company estimates that they will gain an annual income of $1.6 million. If the products are not a hit, the company will realize losses to the tune of $700K. La Comida estimates the probability of success for the sauces and marinades to be 0.50, if these are introduced without gauging consumer response.
