A mutual fund company offers its customers a variety of funds: a money-market fund, three different bond funds (short, intermediate, and long-term), two stock funds (moderate and high-risk), and a balanced fund. Among customers who own shares in just one fund, the percentages of customers in the different funds are as follows: Money market 20%
Short-term bond 15%
Intermediate-term bond 11%
Long-term bond 5%
High-risk stock 18%
Moderate-risk stock 24%
Balanced fund 7%

A customer who owns shares in just one fund is to be selected at random.

Required:
a. What is the probability that the selected individual owns shares in the balanced fund?
b. What is the probability that the individual owns shares in a bond fund?
c. What is the probability that the selected individual does not own shares in a stock fund?

a. 7% probability that the selected individual owns shares in the balanced fund.

b. 31% probability that the individual owns shares in a bond fund.

c. 58% probability that the selected individual does not own shares in a stock fund

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the probability that the selected individual owns shares in the balanced fund?

7% of the individuals owns shares in the balanced fund, so 7% probability that the selected individual owns shares in the balanced fund.

b. What is the probability that the individual owns shares in a bond fund?

Bond funds (short, intermediate, and long-term):

15%(short-term) + 11%(intermediate-term) + 5%(long-term)

15%+11%+5% = 31%

31% probability that the individual owns shares in a bond fund.

c. What is the probability that the selected individual does not own shares in a stock fund?

Anything but moderate and high risk stock%.

The sum of all probabilities is 100%.

18% + 24% = 42% own stock fund.

100 - 42 = 58%

58% probability that the selected individual does not own shares in a stock fund
