Answer:

c. firm's expected rate of return =  9.90%

Explanation:

The computation of the firm expected rate of return is shown below:

= Chance of producing × return + Chance of producing × return + Chance of producing × return

= 50% × 25% + 30% × 10% + 20% × -28%

= 0.125 + 0.03 - 0.056

= 9.90%

We simply applied the above formula so that the firm expected rate of return could come and the same is to be considered
