Their statistics show that an accident prone person will have accident within a year with probability 0.4, whereas probability decreases to 0.2 for a non-accident prone person. If 30% of population is accident prone, what is the probability that a new policy holder will have an accident within one year of purchasing the policy? Suppose a new policy holder has an accident within one year, what is the probability that he or she is accident prone? Q2. Surveys by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

be due to the action of a postulated God, making nature, as it were, performing a great symphony” (Swinburne, The Existence of God, 2005). Richard Swinburne approached the argument from the angle of probability suggesting that the evidence of design and order in the universe increases the probability of the existence of God. Swinburne’s argument is based on the remarkable degree and extent of order and regularity in the universe. It is an appealing argument because one cannot deny the apparent evidence

the annual demand rate for a product or goods is constant, the inventory model is called deterministic. However, when the demand rate is not constant and not deterministic, the inventory model is called probabilistic and is best described by a probability distribution. The minimum-cost order quantity and re-order policies are based on the assumptions of the demand rate. PROBABILISTIC INVENTORY MODELS 1. A single-period inventory model with probabilistic demand The single-period inventory model
