Mаgnus Mаnufаcturing is assessing the pоssibility оf a failure оf a critical piece of equipment at its Harrisburg, PA manufacturing plant; and the corresponding losses that the equipment failures would cause. After performing a quantitative analysis of the company's historical information, the Risk Manager of Magnus Manufacturing derived the following Probability Distribution:  Outcome Probability  Loss ($$$) No Equipment Failure 0.60 $0 Minor Equipment Failure 0.25 $15,000 Moderate Equipment Failure 0.125 $75,000 Major Equipment Failure 0.025 $250,000   Question #1:  What is the Expected Value (Loss) for the failure of a critical piece of equipment at Magnus Manufacturing's - Harrisburg, PA plant?  = [choice1]   Question #2: The Risk Manager wants to compare the risk between the company's Harrisburg, PA manufacturing plant and the company's largest manufacturing plant in Philadelphia, PA. After performing even further quantitative analysis, the Risk Manager of Magnus Manufacturing derived the following information about the two manufacturing plants:  Harrisburg, PA Manufacturing Plant: Expected Value (Loss) = calculated above in Question #1 Standard Deviation = $44,000 Philadelphia, PA Manufacturing Plant:  Expected Value (Loss) = $55,000 Standard Deviation = $97,550   Which one of the two manufacturing plants poses MORE risk (uncertainty) of equipment failure; as determined by the most critical objective measure of risk? (or worded another way the equalizing measure of dispersion) And what is the numerical value of the most critical objective measure of risk?  = [choice2]
