E(x)=+28(.9995)-8000(.0005)=+27.986-4=+$23.986 or +$23.99
\n" ); document.write( "300,000*23.986=$7,195,800
\n" ); document.write( "======================
\n" ); document.write( "Check
\n" ); document.write( "300,000*.0005=150 with lightning damage and costs of $1,200,000
\n" ); document.write( "299,850*28=$8,395,800
\n" ); document.write( "The difference is $7,195,800
\n" ); document.write( "
