Show that in this case the preference functional (9.16) reduces to the classical time additive utility.

(ii) Consider the recursive utility functional of the Epstein \& Zin [651] form given in (9.19). Show that, if \(\alpha=\varrho\), then the recursive preference functional reduces to the classical time additive expected utility with a power utility function.
