3. Suppose Chelsea has the following utility function over sure wealth:v (y) = In y(a) Consider the lottery that yields the outcome $2 with probability and the outcome $8with probability . What is Chelsea's certainty equivalent for this lottery?23*(b) For the lottery in (b), how much would Chelsea pay to have her risk taken away?(c) What is Chelsea's probability premium at $25 for a lottery that could swing her wealth$20 up or down? What about $15 up or down?

the expected amount won from the lottery is calculated as E(Win amount) = (1/3) x 2 + (2/3) x 8…

2. All of Dave's customers are neighbors that have yards of about the same size. Dave charges a flat rate of $32 for mowing and trimming and $20 for just mowing. Based on experience, he determines that the probability that a randomly selected customer wants him to mow and trim the lawn is 0.85; the rest of his customers just want him to mow. Let C= the amount Jacob charges a randomly selected customer. (a) Make a table that shows the probability distribution of C. (b) Calculate and interpret the mean of C. (c) Calculate and interpret the standard deviation of C. opp

Charlie buys a one-year term home insurance policy for $p, that will pay $200,000 in the event of a major catastrophe and $35,000 in the event of a minor catastrophe. Charlie's home has a 0.2% chance of a major catastrophe and a 0.7% of a minor catastrophe during the one year term. What did the insurance company charge Charlie for this policy if the company expected to break even?

< CO 2. There is a 0.9987 probability that a randomly selected 32 year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charges $169 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the year, the policy pays out $110,000 as a death benefit. (a) From the perspective of the 32 year old male, what are the monetary values corresponding to the two events of surviving the year and not surviving? The value corresponding to surviving the year is $ The value corresponding to not surviving the year is $ (b) If 32 year-old male purchases the policy, what is his expected value? The expected value is $ (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) « Previous Next » LAON 23 3D 昌吧 MacBook Air 000 000 DD F7 公 F3 F4 F5 F6 F8 $ 4 5. 6 80

Find the odds of each of the following events. (a) an event E with Pr(E)=5/8 (b) an event E with Pr(E)=0.75 The odds are to . (a) If Pr(E)=A/B, then the odds of E are A to B−A. (b) When the probability is given in decimal form, the best thing to do is to first convert the decimal form into fractional form. If Pr(E)=A/B, then the odds of E are A to B−A. Use the fractional form to find the values of A and B.
Is my solution to my problem correct? If not explain where I went wrong.
Components coming off an assembly line are either free of defects (S, for success) or defective (F, for failure). Suppose that 80% of all such components are defect-free. Components are independently selected and tested one by one. Let y denote the number of components that must be tested until a defect-free component is obtained.
