  • Abstract
    This paper applies Markovian decision theory to intra-governmental financial transactions. One agency sells goods and services to the other. The customer agency can accept or reject an invoiced item under contract. Upon receiving a rejected invoiced item, the servicing agency must decide what action to take. We will develop four policies and the expected costs using Markovian decision theory.
