Many practical decision problems in small business involve situations where complexities of the situation and uncertainty of future outcomes require rational analysis. This paper discusses the role of probability in risk analysis for small business situations involving uncertainties, describes an approach for probability assessments and discusses a way to ascertain one’s risk attitude in decision making.
