This case series is appropriate for executive education, MBA, undergraduate, and MBA Exec crowds but is specifically designed for decision analysis, a first-year MBA core class. In the Component I case, Osvaldo Correa, CEO of Salmones Puyuhuapi (SP), must decide how to react to news that the ISA virus has infected a challenger's salmon farming site. The alternatives include the fish to mature and risk losing fish to the virus, and harvesting SP's 900,000 salmon two months early, waiting vaccinating the fish.
The "harvest now" choice is assessed using normally spread fish weights. It is essential to account for monthly development of the fish and mortality to value the endings of the decision tree. Other choices, e.g. analyzing the water, fish, and marine life can be analyzed with the expected value of perfect information.
