This paper deals with asymmetric decision problems. We describe a generalization of the valuation network representation and solution technique to enable efficient representation and solution of asymmetric decision problems. The
generalization includes the concepts of indicator valuations and effective frames. We illustrate our technique by solving Howard's used car buyer's problem in complete detail. We highlight the contribution of this paper over the symmetric valuation network technique.
