Explanation:
The total number of communication channels = n(n – 1)/2, where n is the number of stakeholders.
n= x onsite members + y offshore members + 1 onsite stakeholder + 1 offshore stakeholder=x+y+2.
# of communication channels=(x+y+2)(x+y+2-1)/2

Ref: In general, we have short attention spans. It is best to communicate the most important update first instead of beating around the bush. Starting off with a catchy phrase can help get immediate attention when duly following up with a summary of the issue and the impact can help maintain focus.

164-172:
A decision is being made whether to invest in the in-house solution or vendor solution. Below are the metrics:
In-house solution:
Strong demand leads to $42M revenue.
Weak demand leads to $15M revenue.
Vendor solution:
Strong demand leads to $49M revenue.
Weak demand leads to $35M revenue.
The end of each branch shows the net effect of the payoffs minus costs. For each decision branch, all effects are added to determine the overall Expected Monetary Value (EMV) of the decision.
Net effect of the payoffs minus costs:
In-house solution, strong demand=$42M-$20M (investment)=$22M
In-house solution, weak demand=$15M-$20M (investment)=-$5M
Vendor solution, strong demand=$49M-$30M (investment)=$19M
Vendor solution, weak demand=$35M-$30M (investment)=$5M
EMV of in-house solution before costs, considering demand=70% of $22M + 30% of -$5M=$13.9M
EMV of vendor solution before costs, considering demand=70% of $19M + 30% of $5M=$14.8M
Decision EMV is the larger of the in-house and vendor solution EMVs=$14.8M
A, B, and C are called Decision node, Chance nodes, and Ends of branches respectively.
