Edition 12ISBN: 978-1133189022 Exercise 4
Let's examine Figure 4A.3 more closely.
1. Why do choices along the "certainty line" imply that there is no risk?
2. If the probability of state 1 is 0.6 and the probability of state 2 is 0.4, what is the actuarially fair slope for the line AE?
3. In general, what determines the slope of the indifference curve EU 3 ?
4. Given your answer to part 2, can you explain why AE and EU 3 have the same slope at point E? (This question is relatively hard.)
