If the product is not satisfactory, the firm will haveto reevaluate the decision. If the decision is reevaluated, thechoice will be whether to spend another $1 million to redesignthe semiconductor or to purchase. Likelihood of success thesecond time that the make decision is made is .9. If the secondmake decision also fails, the firm must purchase. Regardlessof when the purchase takes place, Dhakar’s best judgment ofcost is that Ritz will pay $.50 for each purchased semiconduc-tor plus $1 million in vendor development cost.a) Assuming that Ritz must have the semiconductor…1.
