Is it really $192,500? Seems a bit high!

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, but I can’t recall the exact steps. I hope I can figure out the missing inflow with the probabilities given.

I think the expected value is the sum of all cash inflows multiplied by their probabilities. I hope I can remember how to set that up correctly.

I'm a bit unsure about how to find the missing cash inflow. Do we just subtract the known inflows from the expected value?

I remember we did a similar question in class where we had to calculate expected values based on probabilities. I think I need to set up an equation for this one too.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. We have the expected value of the project and the cash inflow estimates with their probabilities. We need to find the missing cash inflow.

I'm not sure about this one. I mean, what if the project manager is trying to trick us? Maybe the missing cash inflow is actually $192,501, just to mess with our heads. I'm going to go with my gut and say $192,500, but I'll keep an eye out for any hidden curveballs.

This is a no-brainer! The missing cash inflow is clearly $192,500. I could solve this in my sleep. Maybe I should take a nap during the exam and just wake up for the easy questions.

Hmm, let me see... Ah, I got it! The missing cash inflow is $192,500. It's the only option that makes the total cash inflows equal the expected value of the project.

I think the missing cash inflow is $192,500. The expected value of the project is $165,250, and the other cash inflows add up to $172,750. So, the missing cash inflow must be the difference between these two numbers, which is $192,500.
