B) cumulative profit in the second year that we are likely to realize with a probability of at least 0.70
C) probability that the product will show a cumulative net profit in the second year
D) number of trials shown in the cumulative net profit forecast chart for year 2

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Anchoring the right grabber at infinity means considering all possible outcomes, entering 70 in the Certainty box means we are certain to achieve at least that much profit, and hitting enter means calculating the cumulative net profit that we are likely to realize with a probability of at least 0.70.
