Why each option

The question asks to calculate the Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) given an Asset Value (AV) and Exposure Factor (EF). SLE is calculated by multiplying the Asset Value by the Exposure Factor.

A$68,250Correct

The Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) is calculated using the formula: SLE = Asset Value (AV) - Exposure Factor (EF). Given an Asset Value of $195,000 and an Exposure Factor of 35% (or 0.35), the calculation is $195,000 - 0.35 = $68,250.

B$92,600

This value is incorrect based on the SLE calculation formula.

C$72,650

This value is incorrect based on the SLE calculation formula.

D$67,250

This value is incorrect based on the SLE calculation formula.
