    Missing information:

    The demand for a product varies from month to month. Based on the past year's data, the following probability distribution shows MNM company's monthly demand.

    x f (x)

    Unit Demand Probability

    0 0.10

    1,000 0.10

    2,000 0.30

    3,000 0.40

    4,000 0.10

    Answer:

    total expected demand = 100 + 600 + 1,200 + 400 = 2,300 units

    the company spends 2,300 x $8 = $18,400 to produce the units in stock

    the company earns 2,000 x $10 = $20,000 from selling the units

    assuming that the remaining units (unsold units) must be discarded and have no value, then the company will earn $20,000 - $18,400 = $1,600
