Question:
A manufacturing company is considering a new production line to produce a new product. The production line will cost $1,000,000, and it is expected to generate annual revenues of $300,000 for the next 5 years. However, there is some uncertainty about the demand for the new product, and the company is worried about the possibility of losing money on the investment. The company's risk management policy requires that the probability of losing money in any given year should not exceed 20%. What is the minimum annual profit margin that the company needs to achieve to meet this requirement, and what is the probability of achieving this profit margin?
