Answer:
The expected profit is -$13,162.
I would not recomend the investor to make this investment.
Explanation:
The expected profit can be calculated multypling the probabilities of every outcome and the profit of each outcome, and substracting the total invevstment.
The outcomes are:
1) probability 0.39 of a $23,000 loss,
2) probability 0.24 of a $8700 profit,
3) probability 0.12 of a $31,000 profit, and
4) probability 0.25 of breaking even
NOTE: It is assumed that the outcomes does not include the initial investment.
Then, the expected profit of this investment is:
![E(P)=[0.39*(-23,000)+0.24*8,700+0.12*31,000+0.25*0]-10,000\\\\E(P)=[-8,970+2,088+3,720+0]-10,000\\\\E(P)=-3,162-10,000\\\\E(P)=-13,162](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%28P%29%3D%5B0.39%2A%28-23%2C000%29%2B0.24%2A8%2C700%2B0.12%2A31%2C000%2B0.25%2A0%5D-10%2C000%5C%5C%5C%5CE%28P%29%3D%5B-8%2C970%2B2%2C088%2B3%2C720%2B0%5D-10%2C000%5C%5C%5C%5CE%28P%29%3D-3%2C162-10%2C000%5C%5C%5C%5CE%28P%29%3D-13%2C162)

Sea shells are precious items but one cannot properly split divide those sea shells into small denominations like money does. Money is easily storable, people use as a medium of exchange and unit of account.
By unit of account we mean that we can easily measure the value of goods and service and many things in monetary terms but we cannot measure in terms of sea shells.
That's why sea shells unfit to act as money today.

Answer:
The correct answer is $12,060.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
Production in June = 400 units
Production in July = 410 units
Each unit required = 5 pounds
Cost per pound = $6
So, June required raw material = 400 units × 5 pounds = 2000 pounds
For July required raw material = 410 units × 5 pounds × 20% = 410 pounds
So, required total raw material for June = 2000 pounds + 410 pounds - 400 pounds ( already in inventory)
= 2010 pounds
So, the total cost required for raw material in June = 2010 pounds × $6
= $12,060
Hence, the budgeted cost of purchases for raw material K for June is $12,060.
