ABC insurance sells term life insurance policies. If the plicy holder dies during the term of the policy ABC pays out $100000. If the person does not die ABC pays nothing and there is no further value to the policy. ABC has determined through actuarial tables that an individual with certain issues has a 0.001 chance that they will die during the next year and a 0.999 chance that they will live and the company will pay nothing. The cost of this policy is $200 per year. Based on the EMV criterion should the individual buy this policy? How would utility theory help explain why a person would buy this policy?
