Answer:

Expected Profit = $220,700

Step-by-step explanation:

(SEE ATTACHMENT BELOW)

Given

Wholesale = $20

Retail = $30

Total profit made = Profit made from wholesale + profit made from retails

We get total profit made from wholesale by getting the number of units sold

Number of units sold = 2000 * 0.1 + 5000 * 0.3 + 10000 * 0.4 + 20000 * 0.2

Units sold = 200 + 1500 + 4000 + 4000

Units sold = 9700

Wholesale Profit = Units * Wholesale price

Wholesale Profit = 9700 * $20

Wholesale Profit = $194,000

Similarly, We get total profit made from retail by getting the number of units sold

Number of units sold = 600 * 0.4 + 1000 * 0.5 + 1500 * 0.1

Units sold = 240 + 500 + 150

Units sold = 890

Retail Profit = Units * Retail price

Retail Profit = 890 * $30

Retail Profit = $26,700

Total Profit = Wholesale Profit + Retail Profit

Total Profit = $194,000 + $26,700

Total Profit = $220,700
