Neighborhood Insurance sells fire insurance policies to local homeowners. The premium is $110, 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 $100,400.a. Suppose you own the entire firm, and the company issues only one policy. What are the expected payout, expected profit, variance and standard deviation of your scenario? (Enter all answers in dollars, rounded to 2 decimal places. Round Profit to the nearest whole dollar.) b. Now suppose your company issues two policies. The risk of fire is independent across the two policies. Make a table of the payout and profit, along with their associated variances and standard deviations. (Enter all answers in dollars, rounded to 2 decimal places. Round Profit to the nearest whole dollar.) c. 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 the possible payout and profit…

Duke Energy reported that the cost of electricity for an efficient home in a particular neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, was $104 per month. A researcher believes that the cost of electricity for a comparable neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois, is higher. A sample of homes in this Chicago neighborhood will be taken and the sample mean monthly cost of electricity will be used to test the following null and alternative hypotheses. Assume the sample data lead to rejection of the null hypothesis. What would be your conclusion about the cost of electricity in the Chicago neighborhood? What is the Type I error in this situation? What are the consequences of making this error? What is the Type II error in this situation? What are the consequences of making this error?

Suppose you are a cashed-up real estate investor considering purchasing an investment property in Brisbane to buy and then rent out. a) Find a two-bedroom apartment that is advertised for sale (provide a web link to the example). Given the listed (or estimated) sale price of this apartment (use apartment with price of $670,000), what would be the minimum rental income that would make it profitable to invest in this apartment? Make and state your assumptions (e.g., interest/discount rates, maintenance costs). b) Suppose interest rates went up. Would you now be willing to pay more or less for the same property?
