maximum payoff
Step 2: identify the highest maximum payoff. The
minimum payoff can be found.

Minimum payoff
Step 2: Identify the lowest minimum payoff.

Step 2: Subtract every element from the
largest payoff in both columns
Pass
Corn = 2,000,000 – 2,000,000 = 0
Wheat = 2,000,000 – 1,100,000= 900,000
Rice= 2,000,000 -1,400,000 = 600,000
Fail
Corn= 1,200,000 – 700,000 = 500,000
Wheat= 1,200,000 – 1,200,000 = 0
Step 3: select the largest amount in each
row.
