Abstract

The concept of risk in managerial economics encompasses various unexpected events such as natural disasters, risk, economic challenges, uncertainty or product failures that lead to undesirable outcomes. Risk arises from incomplete information about future events, which makes the results unpredictable. The inherent uncertainty of the future because of the unpredictable nature of the universe, further complicates the understanding and management of risk. Scientific uncertainty, defined as any deviation from complete determinism, illustrates the difficulty in clearly defining risk. Sometimes managerial economics explores risk through its two primary dimensions, highlighting its complexity and the challenges it presents to decision-makers.
