### Decision-Making for Aspiring Entrepreneurs: Evaluating Financial OutcomesAs a potential entrepreneur, you have the option of quitting your full-time job and starting your own company. This decision involves considering various factors, including the financial impact. Here, we focus solely on the financial component of your decision. What is the Total Expected Value of the choices you can make? Would you quit your job and start your own company solely based on these financial factors?#### Expected Financial Outcomes:The table below outlines the potential financial outcomes, represented by "X-values", which indicate how many times more you could earn compared to your current full-time day job. Additionally, the table specifies the probability of each outcome occurring.| You can make X-times the money vs. your full-time day job (X-Values) | Probability of the Alternative Choices ||---------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|| 0 | 10% || 0.5 | 20% || 1 | 30% || 5 | 25% || 10 | 10% || 200 | 5% |To calculate the Total Expected Value, multiply each X-value by its corresponding probability and sum the results:- Expected Value = (0 * 10%) + (0.5 * 20%) + (1 * 30%) + (5 * 25%) + (10 * 10%) + (200 * 5%)This calculation will help determine whether the financial benefits of entrepreneurship outweigh the risks.
