A small company plans to invest in a new advertising campaign.

There is a 20% chance that the company will lose $5,000 ,

50% chance of a break even, and a 30% chance of a $10,000 profit


So the expected value from the advertisement campaign is calculated as - 20% of 5000 + 0% of 5000 + 30% of 10,000

= -1000 + 0 + 3000

= 2000


The expected value from the advertisement campaign is $2000.

So the Company must go ahead with the campaign.


Answer : Option A


Hope it helps.
