Based on the cost analysis, proposal 4 would be suited best because it has the lowest expected
monetary value and thus can end up with the least amount of cost compared to other proposals.
Proposal 1 can be considered the second best choice since it has a smaller loss range (from $60,000
to $180,000).

Based on the time analysis, we consider proposal 1. The main reason is because it has the lowest
average duration compared to other proposals. Even though proposal 2 has the same duration, it
still costs more. Proposal 4 can be considered the second choice because it has the second lowest
average duration and is better than proposal 1 if cost-time ratio is considered.
