How to use "Miscalculation" in context?
A calculated risk can quickly become an unintentional miscalculation when an individual fails to account for the unique circumstances of their individual situation and the potential outcomes. Miscalculation can have dire consequences, both for the individuals involved and for those who may be affected by their actions.
One common instance of miscalculation is turning down a job offer due to a presumption that another offer will be forthcoming. Estimates of salary, pension benefits and other potential benefits may be based on an individual's current income, without taking into account potential changes in pay or social Security.
