I think I remember that the regret for Project Y at average demand could be 150, but I’m not confident. I need to double-check the payoffs again to be sure.

If I recall correctly, for average demand, we should look at the payoffs for all projects and find the maximum for that demand level. Then subtract Project Y's payoff from it.

I’m not entirely sure how to calculate the regret matrix. I think it involves finding the difference between the best outcome and the outcome for Project Y, but I’m confused about the average demand level.

I remember we practiced a similar question with a payoff table and had to calculate regrets. I think the regret for Project Y might be related to the highest payoff in that demand scenario.
