In its 2022 quаrterly repоrts, Teslа, Inc. repоrted recоrd vehicle deliveries аnd a rapidly growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs). In response Tesla has been considering investing in a new production assembly line for its popular Model Y. However, uncertainties such as semiconductor shortages and supply chain disruptions have left management debating the best way to expand production capacity. Management has narrowed the investment decision down to three production line options. Each option has different risk and return scenarios, and the incremental profit over the next two years depends on whether the global EV market experiences a surge or grows only moderately. Based on industry forecasts and Tesla’s recent performance, management estimates that: There is a 40% probability that global EV demand will surge rapidly (“Rapid Expansion” scenario). There is a 60% probability that EV demand will grow only moderately (“Moderate Growth” scenario). The estimated incremental profits (in millions of dollars) for each option under the two scenarios are as follows: Production Line Option Rapid Expansion (40%) Moderate Growth (60%) Traditional Assembly Line −$100 $250 Robotic Assembly Line $150 $200 AI-Enhanced Assembly Line $250 −$150 If Tesla were to follow risk neutral decision making, which production line option would they choose?
