Paul wants to choose one of the two investment opportunities over three possible scenarios. Investment 1 will yield a return of $10,000 in Scenario 1, $2,000 in Scenario 2, and a negative return of -$5,000 in Scenario 3. Investment 2 will yield a return of $6,000 in Scenario 1, $4,000 in Scenario 2, and zero in Scenario 3. The probability for Scenario 1 is 0.2, for Scenario 2 is 0.3, and for Scenario 3 is 0.5.Question 2 of 2 5.0 PointsIf Paul is uncertain about the return for Investment 1 in Scenario 1, then this return has to be dollars in order to make Paul indifferent between these two investments (i.e. the two investments would have the same EMV.)

Answer:

1. $2,400

2. Investment 2

Explanation:

For computing the expected return for the investment 2, we have to apply the formula which is shown below:

=  Probability for Scenario 1 × return in Scenario 1 + Probability for Scenario 2 × return in Scenario 2 + Probability for Scenario 3 × return in Scenario 3

= 0.2 × $6,000 + 0.3 × $4,000 + 0.5 × 0

= $1,200 + $1,200

= $2,400

From the calculations we use the investment 2 as Paul is uncertain about the return for investment 1
