I have to solve this problem:Can you help me with question 2 ? Consider an investor with initial wealth yo, who maximizes his expected utility from finalwealth, E[u(ỹ₁)]. This investor can invest in two risky securities, 1 and 2, with random returnĩ₁ and ĩ₂. Those risky returns are two binomial variables. More specifically, with probability1/2 we have r₁ = r + A and ₂ = r, and with probability 1/2 we have ₁ = r and r₂ = r + d₂where r > 0 and A > 6.We assume that this investor has following preferences,u(y) = ln(y)1. For a given fraction, a, of the initial wealth, invested in risky security 2, what is thedistribution of final wealth, ỹ₁?2. Determine the fraction amin which minimizes the variance of ỹ₁. What is the varianceof that particular portfolio?3. Determine the expression of E[u(ỹ₁)] as a function of a.

In the study of economics, the term utility can be defined as the total satisfaction or benefit that…

But as shopkeepers turn off lights and pull down metal grates, the windows of Mario’s restaurant glow yellow. Inside you can see old paintings of Italy’s most famous places, from the Blue Grotto to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. “Some customers have told me they don’t like the paintings,” says owner Joe Migliucci. Joe is 80, but he doesn’t look a day older than 50. He’s Mario’s son, and the paintings were made by his uncle, Ciro. He looks at them lovingly. “They say they’re too dark—too old-fashioned. But this is our history.” B Mario’s is the oldest restaurant in one of the oldest Italian neighbourhoods in the city.
