An insurance policy sells for ​$600. Based on past​ data, an
average of 1 in 50 policyholders will file a ​$10,000 ​claim, an
average of 1 in 250 policyholders will file a ​$50,000 ​claim, and
an average of 1 in 500 policyholders will file ​$80,000 claim. Find
the expected value​ (to the​ company) per policy sold. If the
company sells 20,000​policies, what is the expected profit or​
loss?
