- Q11. What is the behavior of a person with the following utility function? 1 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 $0 $50 $100 $150 $200 Wealth a) Risk-averse. b) Risk-seeking. c) Risk-seeking up to $100 wealth, then risk-averse after $100. d) Risk-averse up to $100 wealth, then risk-seeking after $100. e) Risk-neutral. UtilityUtility functions incorporate a decision maker’s attitude towards risk. Let’s assume that the following utilities were assessed for Danica Wary. x u(x) -$2,000 0 -$500 62 $0 75 $400 80 $5,000 100 Would a risk neutral decision maker be willing to take the following deal: 30% chance of winning $5,000, 40% chance of winning $400 and a 30% chance of losing $2,000? Using the utilities given in the table above, determine whether Danica would be willing to take the deal described in part a? Is Danica risk averse or is she a risk taker? What is her risk premium for this deal?Microeconomics Wilfred’s expected utility function is px1^0.5+(1−p)x2^0.5, where p is the probability that he consumes x1 and 1 - p is the probability that he consumes x2. Wilfred is offered a choice between getting a sure payment of $Z or a lottery in which he receives $2500 with probability p = 0.4 and $3700 with probability 1 - p. Wilfred will choose the sure payment if Z > CE and the lottery if Z < CE, where the value of CE is equal to ___ (please round your final answer to two decimal places if necessary)
- . Priyanka has an income of £90,000 and is a von Neumann-Morgenstern expected utility maximiser with von Neumann-Morgenstern utility index . There is a 1 % probability that there is flooding damage at her house. The repair of the damage would cost £80,000 which would reduce the income to £10,000. a) Would Priyanka be willing to spend £500 to purchase an insurance policy that would fully insure her against this loss? Explain.Zac has a current wealth of £400. He gets an email offering him the chance to enter a prize draw that gives £500 prize with a 25% chance and £0 the rest of the time. Zac is an expected utility maximiser with a von Neumann-Morgenstern utility in wealth w of u (w) = Vw. What is the minimum price at which Zac will sell his rights to enter the draw? £106.25 £506.25 O E31.25 £22.5 £56.252. Alice believes that her car would cost £12500 to replace if it was stolen or damaged. Based on crime statistics for the area she lives in, she believes that the probability of her car being stolen or damaged is 0.15. (i) Alice's utility function is given by U(w) = ln(w) for w > 0 and she as £35000 in the bank. Calculate how much Alice would be prepared to pay (in a single payment) to insure her car against theft or damage (ii) Repeat the calculation in the previous part but now assume Alice has £500000 in the bank.
- 5. Priyanka has an income of £90,000 and is a von Neumann-Morgenstern expected utility maximiser with von Neumann-Morgenstern utility index u(x) = √x. There is a 1 % probability that there is flooding damage at her house. The repair of the damage would cost £80,000 which would reduce the income to £10,000. I Would Priyanka be willing to spend £500 to purchase an insurance policy that would fully insure her against this loss? Explain. What would be the highest price (premium) that she would be willing to pay for an insurance policy that fully insures her against the flooding damage?Jamal has a utility function U = W1/2, where W is his wealth in millions of dollars and U is the utility he obtains from that wealth. In the final stage of a game show, the host offers Jamal a choice between (A) $4 million for sure, or (B) a gamble that pays $1 million with probability 0.6 and $9 million with probability 0.4. a. b. c. d. Graph Jamal’s utility function. Is he risk averse? Explain. (2+2) Does A or B offer Jamal a higher expected prize? Explain your reasoning with appropriate calculations. (1) Does A or B offer Jamal a higher expected utility? Explain your reasoning with calculations. (2) Should Jamal pick A or B? Why?. Priyanka has an income of £90,000 and is a von Neumann-Morgenstern expected utility maximiser with von Neumann-Morgenstern utility index u(x) √x . There is a 1 % probability that there is flooding damage at her house. The repair of the damage would cost £80,000 which would reduce the income to £10,000. a) Would Priyanka be willing to spend £500 to purchase an insurance policy that would fully insure her against this loss?

- 5. In economics, an index of risk aversion is defined as: -U" (m) U'(m) I (m) where m measures how much of a commodity is owned and U(m) is a utility function. Find the index of aversion, I(m), for both utility functions U₁(m) = √m and U,(m) = m5/8, and determine which indicates a greater aversion to risk.Draw a utility function over income u(I) that describes a man who is a risk lover when his income is low but risk averse when his income is high. 1.) Using the 3-point curved line drawing tool, draw the low income portion of his utility function. Label it U₁. 2.) Using the 3-point curved line drawing tool, draw the high income portion of his utility function. Label it UH. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. C 500- 450- 400- 350- 300- 250- 200- 150- 100- 50- 0 Utility 20,000 40,000 60,000 80,000 100,000 IncomeGary likes to gamble. Donna offers to bet him $31 on the outcome of a boat race. If Gary's boat wins, Donna would give him $31. If Gary's boat does not win, Gary would give her $31. Gary's utility function is p1x^21+p2x^22, where P₁ and p2 are the probabilities of events 1 and 2 and where x₁ and x₂ are his wealth if events 1 and 2 occur respectively. Gary's total wealth is currently only $80 and he believes that the probability that he will win the race is 0.3. Which of the following is correct? (please submit the number corresponding to the correct answer). 1. Taking the bet would reduce his expected utility. 2. Taking the bet would leave his expected utility unchanged. 3. Taking the bet would increase his expected utility. 4. There is not enough information to determine whether taking the bet would increase or decrease his expected utility. 5. The information given in the problem is self-contradictory.
