Answer:

The expected profit from the addition is $47,000

Explanation:

Total Addition can be calculated by netting expected values of all situations as follow:

Expected value = %Chance x additional Profit/loss

i Expected profit = 50% x $100,000 = $50,000

ii Expected profit = 30% x $0 = $0 (Profit is same there is no addition)

iii Expected profit = 20% x ($15,000) = ($3,000)

The expected profit from the addition = $50,000 + ($3,000) = $47,000
