You are given the following probability distribution of returns for stock IN A probability of 2 that the return will be 12 a probability of 35 that the return will be 18 a probability of 3 that the return will be 10 and a probability of 15 that the return will be 10 What is the expected return of this stock

Correct Question

You are given the following probability distribution of returns for stock IN A probability of 0.2 that the return will be 12 a probability of 0.35 that the return will be 18 a probability of 0.3 that the return will be 10 and a probability of 0.15 that the return will be 10 What is the expected return of this stock

expected return of this stock =  13.2%

Explanation:

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.

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

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

=(0.2× 12%) + (0.35× 18%) + (0.30×10%) + (0.15 × 10%)

=  13.2%

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
