Susan wants to calculate the annualized loss expectancy for an asset that has a value of $50,000, an exposure factor of 50 percent, and an annual rate of occurrence of 2. What is the annualized loss expectancy for the asset?

Answer Options

A

$5,000

B

$25,000

C

$50,000

D

$100,000

Correct Answer: C

Explanation

Susan can calculate the single loss expectancy (SLE) by multiplying the asset value (AV) by the exposure factor (EF), resulting in $25,000. If this loss occurs twice a year, then the annualized loss expectancy (ALE) is $50,000.
