A publishing company has estimated the following cost probability distribution for the next year. What is the expected cost to the publishing company

Respuesta :

Answer: $595

Explanation:

First find the probability of a $2,000 loss.

= 1 - other probabilities

= 1 - 0.6 - 0.05 - 0.13

= 0.22

Expected cost to the publishing company is a weighted average of the costs:

= (0 * 0.60) + (500 * 0.05) + (1,000 * 0.13) + (2,000 * 0.22)

= $595
