Value
Succes:

Profit = 150000
Investment = 35000

Total income = 150000 + 35000 = 185000

Expected income: 0.27 * 185000 = 49950

Net expected value = expected income - investment = 49950 - 35000 = 14950

Answer:

the total expected value of the investment is given by:

0.27(150,000 - 35,000) + 0.73(-35,000)

The net value is:

5500.

Step-by-step explanation:

A business has an opportunity to invest $35,000.

If the investment is a success, the business earns a profit of $150,000.

The probability of success=0.27.

Hence, the value (in this case profit) of the business would be $150,000 (pure profit) minus the $35,000 (initial investment). Multiplying, you get =0.27(150,000 - 35,000).

Also the probability of failure=1-0.27=0.73

Hence, The value would now be $0 (pure profit) minus the original investment for a total of - $35,000. Multiplying, you get:

= 0.73(-$35,000).

Now the total expected value of the investment is given by:

0.27(150,000 - 35,000) + 0.73(-35,000)

on solving we get:

=0.27×115000-25550

=31050-25550

=5500.

finlep [7]

The next larger thousandth is 36.994 .
The next smaller thousandth is  36.992 .
Neither of those is any nearer to  36.993
than  36.993  already is.

The last '3' at the end of 36.993 is in the thousandths' place.
There is no more piece of another thousandth after it.
So  36.993 is already on a complete thousandth, and
there's no rounding required.
