Suppose that you are given a decision situation with three possible states of nature: s1, s2, and s3. The prior probabilities are P(s1) = 0.2, P(s2) = 0.5, and P(s3) = 0.3. With sample information I, P(I|s1) = 0.1, P(I|s2) = 0.05, and P(I|s3) = 0.2. Compute the revised (or posterior) probabilities: P(s1|I), P(s2|I), and P(s3|I).

In comparing two regression models that were developed using the same data, we might say that the model with the higher R2 value will provide the most accurate predictions. Is this true? Why or why not? If not, what would be the better parameter to use to compare two regression models? Provide at least one example to illustrate your arguments.

As a result, the average fund management costs are lower than they would be if individual savers tried to manage their funds individually. This is an example of
