The premium is $200, the probability of a fire is 0.1%, and in the event of a fire, the insured damages (the payout on the policy) will be $190,000. d. What are the expected value, variance, and standard deviation of your profit? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your standard deviation to the nearest whole number.) Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Variance Expected Return $ 20 Standard Deviation 72,056,000 X 8,489 f. Continue to assume the company has issued two policies, but now assume you take on a partner, so that you each own one-half of the firm. Make a table of your share of the possible payouts the company may have to make on the two policies, along with their associated probabilities. (Negative answers should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your "Probability" answers to 4 decimal places.) Outcome: No Fire Outcome: One Fire Outcome: Two Fires Payout Probability % % % g. What are the expected value and variance of your profit? Expected Return Variance Standard Deviation
