Explanation:

The expected selling price is defined by the weighted average of each possible outcome (recession, steady or boom) multiplied by their respective selling price

The outcomes likelihoods and prices are:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}Recession&0.25&\$970\\Steady&0.55&\$1,000\\Boom&0.10&\$1,150\end{array}[/tex]

The expected selling price is:
