The wholesale cost for the pianos that Darnell pays the manufacturer $452,000
The salary Darnell could earn if he worked as an accountant $48,000
The wages and utility bills that Darnell pays $301,000
The rental income Darnell could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom $38,000
B.

Accounting Profit 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000 = 89,000
Economic Profit 842,000 - 452,000 - 301,000 - 48,000 - 38,000 = 3,000
C. Economic Profit as an accountant = 48,000 + 38,000 - 89,000 = -$3,000. Thus, Darnell should stay in the Piano business to maximize the Economic Profit.</span>
Answer:
Expected rate of return on stock is 14.86%
Explanation:
The expected rate of return of a stock is the mean return that is expected to be earned by the stock considering the different scenarios that can occur, the return in these scenarios and the probability of the occurrence of these scenarios. The formula for expected rate of return of stock is,
rE = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN
Where,
- pA, pB, ... represents the probability that scenario A, B and so on will occur or the probability of each scenario
- rA, rB, ... represents the return in scenario A, B and so on
rE = 0.21 * 0.2 + 0.72 * 0.15 + 0.07 * -0.02
rE = 0.1486 or 14.86%
