Answer:

$700

Explanation:

probability of customer being injured = 1 / 1,000 = 0.001

costs without insurance = $750,000

insurance deductible = $50,000

net legal costs with insurance = $750,000 - $50,000 = $700,000

expected legal costs = $700,000 x 0.001 = $700

so the most that the company should be willing to pay for the insurance policy is $700

Answer:

E) none of the above

12.70% and 2.49% standard deviation

Explanation:

We multiply probability by the outcome to get the weighted amount, we add them and get the expected return.

probability outcome weighted

0.25          0.10   0.0250

0.45          0.12   0.0540

0.30          0.16   0.0480

expected return  0.1270

Now that we got the expected return at 12.7%

We now subtract the possible outcome with the expected return and square them:

(0.127-0.1)^2

(0.127-0.12)^2

(0.127-0.16)^2

Then we add them and divide by the sample which is 3

0.000622  

²√ 0.000622   = 0.024944383

<u><em>Final step,</em></u> will be the square root which gives the standard deviation

of 2.49% = 0.024947
