You are thinking about the things that can go wrong on your trip home over the Thanksgiving break. You have booked a flight with

US-Scareways. You know that in 35 percent of the cases the company has canceled the flight you were on. Should such a thing occur, there would be no other air travel option home for you. As a backup, your friend Walter has offered you a ride back. However, you know that Walter only has a seat in his car for you with 70 percent probability.
What is the probability of you making it home for the holidays?

Answer: 89.5% or 0.895

Explanation:

Probability of you making it home if the flight is canceled:

= Probability that flight is canceled * probability that Walter has a seat

= 35% * 70%

= 24.5%

Probability of you making it home by flight:

= 100% - 35%

= 65%

Probability of you making it home for the holidays:

= Prob. if flight is canceled + Prob. by flight

= 24.5% + 65%

= 89.5%

Savatey [412]

Answer: $1,063,000

Explanation:

Net realizable value is the value of an asset that a company will get when the asset is sold minus the cost that came with the asset sales.

The net realizable value of the accounts receivable will be the accounts receivable of $1,100,000 minus the allowance for uncollectible accounts which was given as $37,000.

= $1,100,000 - $37,000

= $1,063,000

= 0.06 × [1 - (1 - 0.70) × (0.35)]

= 0.06 × [1 - (0.30) × (0.35)]
