The owner of a small firm has just purchased a personal computer, which she expects will serve her for the next two years. The owner has been told that she "must" buy a surge suppressor to provide protection for her new hardware against possible surges or variations in the electrical current, which have the capacity to damage the computer. The amount of damage to the computer depends on the strength of the surge. It has been estimated that there is a 3% chance of incurring 350 dollar damage, 5% chance of incurring 250 dollar damage, and 12% chance of incurring 100 dollar damage from a surge within the next two years. An inexpensive suppressor, which would provide protection for only one surge, can be purchased. How much should the owner be willing to pay if she makes decisions on the basis of expected value

$35

Explanation:

The computation of the expected value is shown below;

As we know that  

= Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage

= 3% × $350 + 5% × $250 + 12% × $100

= $10.5 + $12.5 + $12

= $35

We simply multiplied the estimated chance of damage percentage with the dollar damage and then added the other two so that the expected value could arrive

the definition of a small business is an independently owned and operated company that is limited in size and in revenue depending on the industry. a local bakery that employs 10 people is an example of a small business. a manufacturing facility that employees less than 500 people is an example of a small business.
