Answer:

Expected Value of the return = 12.1%

Explanation:

<em>The expected rate of return is the weighted average of all the possible returns associated with an investment decision. The returns are weighted using the probability associated with their outcomes.  </em>

Expected return = WaRa + Wb+Rb + Wn+Rn  

W- weight of the outcome, R - return of the outcome  

W- Probability of the expected outcome, R- expected return under a circumstance

Expected Value of the return  

(0.25× 17%) + (0.7× 11%) + (0.05 × 2%) = 0.1205

=0.1205 × 100

=  12.1%

Expected Value of the return = 12.1%
