Answer:
The Mean return = 0.8*16.5% + 0.2*-11.6%
The Mean return = 0.132 + (-0.0232)
The Mean return = 0.132 - 0.0232
The Mean return = 0.1088
The Mean return = 10.88%
Variance = 0.8*(16.5%-10.88%)^2 + 0.2*(-11.6%-10.88%)^2
Variance = 0.8*(5.62%)^2 + 0.2*(-0.72%)^2
Variance = 0.012634

The persons I would give the business plan to are:
- An angel investor who I met on LinkedIn who supports small businesses and start-ups
- My banker of over 20 years
- I would give the business plan to my family members because they are the easiest people to raise funds from and also because family, can decide to contribute in cash or in-kind with no interest required.
- I would give the business plan to an angel investor because their funds are cheaper than those of the banks though a little more difficult to come by
- Banks always have the funds but the funds come at a higher cost than the first two.
