52. (Based on Balson et al. [1992].) An electric utilitycompany is trying to decide whether to replace its PCBtransformer in a generating station with a new and safertransformer. To evaluate this decision, the utility needsinformation about the likelihood of an incident, such as afire, the cost of such an incident, and the cost of replacingthe unit. Suppose that the total cost of replacement as apresent value is $150,000. If the transformer is replaced,there is virtually no chance of a fire. However, if thecurrent transformer is retained, the probability of a fireis assessed to be 0.005. If a fire occurs, the cleanupcost could be high ($100 million) or low ($30 million). The probability of a high cleanup cost, given that a fireoccurs, is assessed at 0.3.a. If the company uses EMV as its decision criterion,should it replace the transformer?b. Perform a sensitivity analysis on the key parametersof the problem that are difficult to assess, namely,the probability of a fire, the probability…

2b. It is thought that 20% of Annual Tax returns to the Australian Tax Office (ATO) contain errors of one kind or another. An auditor in the ATO investigating the number of returns with errors in a particular industry takes a sample of 25 returns and classifies each return as being “in error” or “not in error”. i. If the variable X is used to represent the number of returns in the sample that are in error, and assuming this industry is no different to other industries in terms of the error rate, then state:• the values that X may take;• the distribution of this variable; and • the parameter/s of this distribution. ii. Determine the probability that 6 or less returns in this sample are in error. The auditor found that there were 13 tax returns with errors in this sample. iii. Determine the probability of finding 13 or more returns with errors if indeed the error rate was 20%. iv. Based upon your answer for part iii., what conclusion might the auditor make about this particular industry…
