- Your employer, an insurance company, would like to offer theft insurance for renters. The policy would pay the full replacement value of any items that were stolen from the apartment. Some apartments have security alarms installed. Such systems detect a break-in and ring an alarm within the apartment. The insurance company estimates that the probability of a theft in a year is .05 if there is no security system and .01 if there is a security system (there cannot be more than one theft in any year). An apartment with a security system costs the renter an additional $50 per year. Assume that: the dollar loss from a theft is $10,000, the insurance company is risk neutral, and the renter would be willing to pay more than the expected loss to insure against the loss of theft. What is the insurance company's break-even price for a one-year theft insurance policy for an apartment without a security system? Does a renter have an incentive to pay for a security system if he…arrow_forwardYour employer, an insurance company, would like to offer theft insurance for renters.

If the holder of one of these policies dies before the age of 70 years, the company must pay $213,000 the beneficiary of the policy. Avicena executives are considering the possibility of offering these policies to $9,380 each one. Suppose there is a 4% probability that the insured will die before the 70 age of years and a 96% probability that she will live to 70 age.If Avicena executives know they will sell many of these policies, should they expect to make or lose money by offering them? How much would they win or lose?To respond, take into account the price of the policy and the expected value of the amount paid to the beneficiary.arrow_forwardThe mean cost of domestic airfares in the United States rose to an all-time high of $395 per ticket.
