help me please Assume that you have a car worth $7300 and you wish to insure it for its full replacement value if it is stolen. If there is a 2% chance that the car will be stolen, what would a fair premium price be? A. $133.94 B. $152.98 C. $148.98 D. $161.30
Basically you need to balance the costs so they are equal.
Quick calculations: >>> 7300.0/50 146.0 >>> 7300.0/49 148.9795918367347
So the idea is that 1/50 you lose the car and without insurance that costs you 7300. Your expected loss is 1/50 times 7300. With insurance, you lose $x with probability 1, but there is no additional loss if the car is stolen. Anyone wanna help with why it's 49 and not 50 for the division? Anyway, among the listed answers, you can see which one to go with.
