The Heinrich Tire Company recalled a tire in its subcompact line in December 2013. Costs associated with the recall were originally thought to approximate $41 million. Now, though, while management feels it is probable the company will incur substantial costs, all discussions indicate that $41 million is an excessive amount. Based on prior recalls in the industry, management has provided the following probability distribution for the potential loss (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1)(Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided):
Â
| Loss Amount | Probability |
| $31 million | 20% |
| $21 million | 50% |
| $11 million | 30% |
