Using a strategy region graph, determine what impact, if any, the insurance premium cost has on her decision. Briefly explain your answer
If the insurance premium were to increase much above $175, Mrs. Rich would be better off not purchasing the collision insurance (see strategy region chart above), because the line for that alternative falls below (i.e. provides lower expected cost) the “Buy Insurance” line in that range. Above $175, the insurance premium is too expensive, relative to her risks.
