Expected Utility, Expected Value, and Variance Suppose an individual can invest in a stock, a bond, or a risk-free asset. Further suppose that these asset's payoffs are determined from throwing two dice simultaneously. The particular payoffs are described below. Stock Payoff: - Gains (pays) $14 if the sum of the two dice is greater than 10. - Gains (pays) $7 if the sum of the two dice is greater than 5 but less than 11 . - Loses (costs) $5 if the sum of the two dice is greater than 2 but less than 6. - Loses (costs) $10 if the sum of the two dice is less than 3. Bond Payoff: - Gains (pays) $2 if the sum of the two dice is greater than 2. - Loses (costs) $3 if the sum of the two dice is less than 3. Rikk-Free Asset Payoff: - Gains (pays) $1 regardless of the outcome from tossing the dice. Finally, suppose the individual has initial wealth equal to $100 and preferences over wealth described by the natural log utility function. I.e., U(W)=ln(W) and therefore EU(W)= E[ln(W)] Part A (6 marks): For each asset, please compute the expected payoff and variance of expected payoff. Part B (3 marks): Please compute the expected utility from holding each asset. Notes: i) make sure you include at least four digits after the decimal for you answer, ii) do not round intermediate caleulations (Td-suggest making calculations in fixcel or MAIIAB to avold any rounding errors). 2 QUESTION 2. EXPECTED UTILITY, EXPECTED VALUE, AND VARIANCE 3 Part C (3 marks): Comment on your findings. In doing so, focus on explaining why, for this particular individual, the asset with the highest expected return does not necessarily offer the highest level of expected utility. Note: by "this particular individual" I mean an individual whose preferences are represented by the natural log utility function, ln(W)
