Choose your answer, then check it against the explanation.

A company is considering whether to develop an overseas market for its products. The cost of developing the new market is estimated to be $250,000. There is a 70% probability that the development of the new market will succeed and a 30% probability that the development of the new market will fail and no further expenditure will be incurred. If the market development is successful, the profit from the new market will depend on prevailing exchange rates. There is a 50% chance that exchange rates will be in line with expectations and a profit of $500,000 will be made. There is a 20% chance that exchange rates will be favorable and a profit of $630,000 will be made and a 30% chance that exchange rates will be adverse and a profit of $100,000 will be made. The profit figures stated are before taking account of the development costs of $250,000. Use a decision tree to decide whether the company should develop an overseas market for its products.
