Question 372450: How do you solve:
An insurance company will insure a $220,00 home for its total value for an annual premium of $510. If the company spends $30 per year to service such a policy, the probability of total loss for such a home in a given year is 0.001 and you assume either total loss or no loss will occur, what is the company's expected annual gain (or profit) on each such policy?
Thank you!
