243.A person faces a lottery which involves a 50% chance of providing an extra
$10,000 in income—a result which would increase utility by 10 utils. The
only other possibility is that the lottery might result in a loss of $100—in
which case, utility would fall by 2 utils. It is clear from the information given
that an extra $4,450, guaranteed, would increase utility by more than 4 utils.
A) True
B) False
10000*0.5-100*0.5=4950
260.A given person is risk averse through all relevant levels of income. This person,
facing the prospect of receiving an extra $5,000 with probability 0.5 and
losing $5,000 with probability 0.5, would be willing to buy:
A) more insurance to avoid the risk than if the probabilities were 0.25 and 0.75 of
receiving the extra $5,000 and losing $5,000, respectively.
B) less insurance to avoid the risk than if the probabilities were 0.25 and 0.75 of
receiving the extra $5,000 and losing $5,000, respectively.
C) the same amount of insurance to avoid the risk as if the probabilities were 0.25
and 0.75 of receiving the extra $5,000 and losing $5,000, respectively.
D) no insurance to avoid the risk even if the probabilities were 0.25 and 0.75 of
receiving the extra $5,000 and losing $5,000, respectively.
E) up to $10,000 in insurance if the probability of loss were sufficiently high.
