Strassel Investors buys real estate, develops it, and resells it for a profit. A new property is available, and Bud Strassel, the president and owner of Strassel Investors, believes if he purchases and develops this property, it can then be sold for $160,000. The current property owner has asked for bids and stated that the property will be sold for the highest bid in excess of $100,000. Two competitors will be submitting bids for the property. Strassel does not know what the competitors will bid, but he assumes for planning purposes that the amount bid by each competitor will be uniformly distributed between $100,000 and $150,000.

(a) Develop a worksheet that can be used to simulate the bids made by the two competitors. Strassel is considering a bid of $130,000 for the property. Using a simulation of 1,000 trials, what is the estimate of the probability Strassel will be able to obtain the property using a bid of $130,000? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.)

32.7%

(b) How much does Strassel need to bid to be assured of obtaining the property?

$150,000

(c) Use the simulation model to compute the profit for each trial of the simulation run. With maximization of profit as Strassel's objective, use simulation to evaluate Strassel's bid alternatives of $130,000, $140,000, or $150,000. (Round your answers to the nearest dollar.)

expected profit for a bid of $130,000 - 9810

expected profit for a bid of $140,000 - 12180

expected profit for a bid of $150,000 - 10000

A bid of $140,000 results in the largest mean profit of the three alternatives.

The correct answers are already in bold. I just need extremely detailed explanation on how to show my work through excel. Thank you!
