These can be broadly classified into three categories:1. Decisions under Certainty: In this situation, the decision maker knows the exact outcomes associated with each alternative. There is complete and reliable information about the environment, so selecting the best alternative is straightforward.2. Decisions under Risk:Here, while the outcomes are not completely known, the decision maker can estimate the probabilities of various outcomes based on historical data or statistical analysis. This allows for a calculated risk-taking approach.3.Decisions under Uncertainty:In this case, there is insufficient or no information available to accurately estimate the probability of each outcome. This makes it difficult to predict the result of any decision.Write short notes on MIS.Exam Prediction: 64%Source: Internal IGNOU & Study Centre PapersManagement Information System is an integrated system designed to provide the right information at the right time to support management decision-making and control within an organization.
