You have chosen biology as your college major because you would like to be a medical doctor. However, you find that the probability of being accepted into medical school is about 10 percent. If you are accepted into medical school, then your starting salary when you graduate will be $300,000 per year. However, if you are not accepted, then you would choose to work in a zoo, where you will earn $40,000 per year. Without considering the additional educational years or the time value of money, what is your expected starting salary as well as the standard deviation of that starting salary?

Gabrielle has purchased the 2-year extended warranty from a retailer to cover the value of hers new cellphone in case if it gets damaged or becomes inoperable for the price of $25. Gabrielle's cellphone is worth $1400 and the probability that it gets damaged or becomes inoperable during the length of the extended warranty is estimated to be 4%.

1. Create the probability distribution table for XX :
XX
outcome
profit xx ,$

- Avicenna, a major insurance company, offers five-year life insurance policies to 65-year-olds. If the holder of one of these policies dies before the age of 70, the company must pay out $27,400 to the beneficiary of the policy. Executives at Avicenna are considering offering these policies for $765 each. Suppose that for each holder of a policy there is a 3% chance that they will die before the age of 70 and a 97% chance they will live to the age of 70. If the executives at Avicenna know that they will sell many of these policies, should they expect to make or lose money from offering them? How much? To answer, take into account the price of the policy and the expected value of the amount paid out to the beneficiary. Avicenna can expect to make money from offering these policies. In the long run, they should expect to make dollars on each policy sold. O Avicenna can expect to lose money from offering these policies. In the long run, they should expect to lose dollars on each policy…arrow_forwardJohn Clinton owns his own Gno-Cone business and lives 30 miles from a beach resort. The sale of Gno-Cones is highly dependent upon his location and upon the weather. At the resort, he will profit $120 per day in fair weather, $10 per day in bad weather. At home, he will profit $70 in fair weather, $55 in bad weather. Assume that on any particular day, the weather service suggests a 40% chance of foul weather. What decision is recommended by the expected monetary value criterion?

- Milanarrow_forwardSam is offered to purchase the 2-year extended warranty from a retailer to cover the value of his new appliance in case it gets damaged or becomes inoperable for the price of $25. Sam's appliance is worth $1000 and the probability that it will get damaged or becomes inoperable during the length of the extended warranty is estimated to be 3%. Compute the expected profit of the retail company and use it to decide whether Sam should buy the offered extended warranty.arrow_forwardIn a certain California city, projections for the next year are that there is a 20% chance that they will increase by 300, and a 30% chance they will decrease by 800.

- A farmer must decide whether to take protective action to limit damage to his grapefruit crop in the event that the overnight temperature falls to a level well below freezing. If the temperature drops too low he runs the risk of losing his entire crop, valued at $75,000. Based on the National Weather Service, the probability of such a temperature drop is 60%. He can insulate his crop by spraying water on all the trees, which will cost $20,000. This action might succeed in protecting the crop, with the following possible outcomes: Probability Damage 0.30 $0 0.15 $5,000 0.10 $10,000 0.15 $15,000 0.30 $20,000 Find the highest cost of insulating the grapefruits for which the farmer prefers to insulate his crop. Report your answer in thousands of dollars (if your answer is $100,000, enter 100).arrow_forwardA man buys a racehorse for $25,000 and enters it in two races. He plans to sell the horse afterward, hoping to make a profit. If the horse wins both races, its value will jump to $105,000. If it wins one of the races, it will be worth $65,000. If it loses both races, it will be worth only $10,000. The man believes there is a 30% chance that the horse will win the first race and a 35% chance that it will win the second one. Assuming that the two races are independent events, find the man's expected profit.arrow_forwardShow your solution step by steparrow_forward
- You live in an area that has a possibility of incurring a massive earthquake, so you are considering buyingearthquake insurance on your home at an annual cost of $180. The probability of an earthquake damagingyour home during one year is 0.001. If this happens, you estimate that the cost of the damage (fully coveredby earthquake insurance) will be $160,000. Your total assets (including your home) are worth $250,000. A. Apply Bayes’ decision rule to determine which alternative (take the insurance or not) maximizes yourexpected assets after one year.arrow_forwardsniparrow_forwardA company is trying to decide if they should make a bid on a project that would generate 4500,000 in profit. It will cost $100,000 to develop the bid and they will have a 35% chance of winning the contract.
