Answer 1

Losses for the producers of Waterworld, if they finished the movie would be $50 million. If they did not finish the movie, losses would be $130 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, the difference between all their expenses in making the movie and the revenue generated is actually $50 million. This happens to be their losses while on the other-hand, if they didn't finish making the movie, it would be $130 million (aside the cost spent in finishing the movie after rebuilding the set)
