    The expected return from this investment is $19.5

    Explanation:

    Investment returns = A = $125 $20 - $60

    Probabilities = P = 0.3 0.3 0.4

    Expected Returns = A x P = $37.5 $6 - $24

    Net Total interest of Investment = $37.5 + $6 + ( - $24)

    Net Total interest of Investment = $37.5 + $6 - $24

    Net Total interest of Investment = $19.5

    The expected return from this investment is $19.5.
