Answer:

The answer is not complete. But you can use a spreadsheet to construct a simulation model to estimate the average profit per unit of a set of data.

Explanation:

To calculate the Expected value of profit, we use:

Selling price - Expected value of different costs

Selling price is Total Cost * Probability

Confidence Interval

A Confidence Interval is a range of values that someone can be sure the true value lies in.

To calculate the confidence interval, we use the formula x ± z * S/√n

Where S is the standard deviation

n is the number of observations

x is the mean

z is the chosen z value
