A flood insurance company sells policies for $700 per year. If a customer's house is flooded, they are given $250,000 for repair
olga_2 [115]

\$680 money can the insurance company expect to make with each policy sold .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A flood insurance company sells policies for $700 per year. If a customer's house is flooded, they are given $250,000 for repairs. The insurance company has calculated the chances that a house is flooded to be 1/12,500 over the year. We need to find , How much money can the insurance company expect to make with each policy sold . Let's find out:

Probability for flooding is 1/12,500 i.e. out of 12,500 people only 1 house is flooded , Amount of money collected by 12,500 people is :

⇒ 12500(700)

⇒ \$8,750,000

But Company will give $250,000 for repairs . So , Amount of money :

⇒ 8,750,000-2,50,000

⇒ \$8,500,000

Now , this money is from 12,500 people , so from every person they had:

⇒\frac{8,500,000}{12500}

⇒\$680

Therefore , \$680 money can the insurance company expect to make with each policy sold .
