25% chance of 0% return
50% chance of 10% return
25% chance of a 20% return -- What is the expected return?
It is just .25 (25%) times 0 (the first outcome) = 0
then .50 (50%) times .10 ( 10% - the second outcome) = .05
then .25 times .20 = .05.
Then add them all together 0 + .05 + .05 = .10 or 10%. So the answer is the expected
outcome is a 10% return.
