Answer: 8%

Explanation:

Expected return is a weighted average of the different returns that a stock will have in different economic conditions.

This stock's expected return is;

= (Probability Economic state * Return given economic state) + (Probability Economic state b * Return given economic state b)

= ( 40% * -10%) + (20% * 60%)

= 8%
