Presentation Transcript
Chapter Objectives • Explain the process of management science • Be able to solve problems using three types of decision making tools
Relation to Planning • Managerial decision making is the process of making a conscious choice between two or more rational alternatives
Types of Decisions • Routine and Non-Routine Decisions • Objective vs. Bounded Rationality • Level of Certainty
Management ScienceCharacteristics • Systems view of the problem • Team approach • Emphasis on use of formal mathematical models and statistical and quantitative techniques
Models & Analysis • Formulate the problem • Construct a mathematical model • Test the model’s ability • Derive a solution from the model • Apply model’s solution to real system
Categories of Decision Making • Decision Making under Certainty (Only one state of nature exists.) • Decision Making under Risk (Probabilities for states of natures are known.) • Decision Making under Uncertainty (Probabilities for states of natures are unknown.)
Tools for Decision Making under Certainty • Linear programming • Graphical solution • Simplex method • Computer software • Non-linear programming • Engineering Economic Analysis

Engineering Economic Analysis • Time Value of Money • Minimum Acceptable Rate of Return • Decision Criteria • Net Present Worth • Equivalent Annual Worth • Internal Rate of Return • Benefit / Cost Ratio
Tools for Decision Making under Risk • Expected value • Decision trees Decision Node Chance Node http://www.mindtools.com/dectree.html • Queuing theory • Simulation
Tools for Decision Making under Uncertainty • Laplace criteria (Equally likely) • Maximax criteria • Maximin criteria • Hurwicz criteria • Minimax regret crteria
Minimax regret crteria First convert payoff table to regret table
Computer-Based Information Systems • Decision Support Systems (DSS) A System under the control of 1 or more decision makers, that assists in the activity of decision making by providing an organized set of tools intended to impart structure to portions of the decision-making situation and to improve the ultimate effectiveness of the decision outcome.
DSS Components • Data Management System • Model Management System • Knowledge Engine • User Interface • DSS User
