    0.3797 or 37.97%

    Explanation:

    According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

    Wants Rate on return on investment = 50%

    Expected value of return on investment = invested amount * (1+g) ^t

    = $1,000,000 * (1+50%) ^5

    = $1,000,000 * 7.59375

    = $7,593,750

    Similar venture would achieve valuation of $20,000,000 for $2,000,000. We can expect that company would achieve similar valuation of $20,000,000 in 5 years from now.

    Investor's share value at 5 years = $7,593,750 : $20,000,000

    = 0.3797 or 37.97%
