- a) Compute the (absolute) risk aversion measure dependent r(W) of utility function -e -aW Is r(W) on W?Consider the following utility functions: U1(x) = e*; U2(x) = x°, where r > 0 and BE (0,1); U3(x) = 2x + 10. For each function decide whether it belongs to a risk- neutral, risk-averse or risk-loving decision-maker.Compute the RELATIVE risk aversion measure rr(W) of the following utility function (the form of which depends on the value of y. w-Y -1 y 20,y +1 1-7 In W y =1 Is rr(W) dependent on W?
- Please draw a utility function that exhibits risk-loving behavior for small gambles (low values)and risk-averse behavior for larger gambles (high value).Compute the RELATIVE risk aversion measure rr(W) of the following utility function (the form of which depends on the value of y. wl-Y –1 y 20,y #1 1-7 In W y =1 Is rr(W) dependent on W?In the field of financial management, it has been observed that there is a trade-off between the rate of return that one earns on investments and the amount of risk that one must bear to earn that return. a) Draw a set of indifference curves between risk and return for a person that is risk-averse (a person that does not like risk).
- Chris Traeger is trying to decide whether or not to purchase health insurance. Chris knows that if he is healthy, his wealth will be $2,000 this year. However, if he gets sick his wealth will only be $500. Chris knows the probability of getting sick is 40%. His utility function is written below. U = (2) What is utility if the individual purchases insurance at the actuarially fair price? 25.29 utils 26.46 utils 31.62 utils 18.97 utilsUtility 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?To go from Location 1 to Location 2, you can either take a car or take transit. Your utility function is: U= -1Xminutes -5Xdollars +0.13Xcar (i.e. 0.13 is the car constant) Car= 15 minutes and $8 Transit= 40 minutes and $4 What is your probability of taking transit given the conditions above? What is your probability of taking transit if the number of buses on the route were doubled, meaning the headways are halved? Remember to include units.
- If the utility function is U (W) = ((W0.75) / (0.75)), what is the absolute risk aversion coefficient?Suppose a person chooses to play a gamble that is free to play. In this gamble, they have a 10% chance of $100.00, and a 90% chance of nothing. Their utility function is represented in the following equation: U=W 1/2 where W is equal to the amount of "winnings" (or the income). Suppose now Brown Insurance Company offers the person the option of purchasing insurance to insure they will win the $100. What is the minimum amount Brown Insurance would charge you to insure your win? 0.90 O. 99 01 O 10QUESTION 5 A consumer has utility u (I) = √I and income $1,600. The cost of going to the doctor is $1,150, and the cost of going to the gym is $150. If the consumer goes to the gym, the probability of getting sick is 20%; if she does not go to the gym, the probability of getting sick is 80%. When sick, the consumer must go to the doctor. An insurance company is offering a health insurance plan with an insurance premium of $230 and a co-pay of $110 (that is, the consumer must pay the $110 if she goes to the doctor). a) The consumer's expected utility from purchasing this insurance and going to the gym is b) The consumer's expected utility from purchasing this insurance and not going to the gym is c) In this market, the $110 copay ✓ QUESTION 6 A salesperson is trying to sell ca Given her effort e, with probabili The dealership pays her a bonu a) Given the bonus b, the salesp b) Suppose the dealership pays *Select Answer* 34.6061 35.7999 37.0135 43.0338 42.4303 46.2601 fixes the adverse…
