shawn and maddie purchase a foreclosed property for $50,000 and spend an additional $27,000 fixing up the property.
They feel they can sell the property for
$120,000 with probabilty 15%, profit = 43000
$100,000 with probability 45%; profit = 23000
$80,000 with probability 25%; profit = 3000
$60,000 with probability 15%; profit = -17000
-------------------------------------
Compute and interpret the expected profit for reselling the property:
E(profit) = 0.15*43000 + 0.45*23000 + 0.25*3000 - 0.15*17000
---
E(profit) = $15000
