Albert is worried that his entire potato plantation which is expected to yield P400,000 income will be totally devastated by bad weather conditions. He obtained a P300,000 crop insurance cover for P30,000. Just before harvest, a rare frost totally destroyed Albert's plantation. The insurance company paid the policy proceeds.
Compute the total return on capital for Albert. Show your computations.
Expected profit = 4,00,000
Earned profit = 3,00,000
Insurance amount recieved= 30,000
Total return on capital= Earned profit+Other additional profit earned(insurance amount)
=3,00,000+30,000=3,30,000
Profit/loss on investment=Expected profit-earned profit
=4,00,000-3,30,000(3,00,000+30,000)
Loss on investment =70,000
