- Problem 1 Jane has the following utility function: u(w) w^.5 or the square root. function Which of the following prospects would she prefer? P1(.4, 3,000, 600) P2(.7, 1,200, 1,000) P3(.6, 2,000, 100)In your answers, label all intercepts, coordinates, slopes, and axes. 1. For the utility function U(x1,X2) = x94x9.6, calculate EV, CV and ACS for an increase in Pi from $1 to $2. Assume p2 = 1, and m = 100.2. Alice believes that her car would cost £12500 to replace if it was stolen or damaged. Based on crime statistics for the area she lives in, she believes that the probability of her car being stolen or damaged is 0.15. (i) Alice's utility function is given by U(w) = ln(w) for w > 0 and she as £35000 in the bank. Calculate how much Alice would be prepared to pay (in a single payment) to insure her car against theft or damage (ii) Repeat the calculation in the previous part but now assume Alice has £500000 in the bank.
- A person's utility function is given by U(x, y, z) = 7xyz, where x, y, z denote then number of units of three commodities X,Y, and Z that the person consumes. The pricesr per unit of X,Y, and Z are 5 euro, 1 euro, and 3 euro respectively. If ther person has a budget of 270 euro, the person's utility is maximised when they consume units of X, units of Y, and units of Z. The person's maximum utility is If the person's budget is increased to 271 euro, then using the method of lagrange multipliers we find that the maximum utility is approximatelyEvery week I spend a total of £400 buying two goods, luxuries (L) and necessities (N). I obtain utility (U) from these goods according to the rule U(L, N) = 10 + L + 20N−2N2. Suppose that I pay £10 for each unit of L and £20 for each unit of N and that I am a utility-maximiser. MUL=1 and MUN=20-4N. Define the Marginal Rate of Substitution (MRS) as MRS ≡ MUL/MUN). Calculate its value at the bundle (L = 0 and N = 4) and at (L = 1 and N = 4). By referring to a graphic illustration of the above calculations or otherwise, argue that an increase in my budget will have no effect on my consumption of N if I am already consuming 2.5 units of N. Calculate my optimum choice of L and N if instead I have £40 to spend. Fully explain your answer.3. Consider a home energy storage (battery) system that can store up to 2 units of energy. At every time step, there is a demand for energy in the home which is drawn from 0,1,2 units with equal probability independent of the demands in the previous time steps. At every point in time, you have to satisfy the demand either by discharging the needed energy from the battery or purchasing power from the grid (or a combination of the two). You could also choose to purchase power from the grid to charge your battery. The grid energy price is either H(igh) or L(ow) according to a Markov chain (Price moves from H to L with probability p, and from L to H with probability q). (a) Model the decision making as an infinite horizon MDP where the objective is to minimize the discounted cost of energy purchased over an infinite horizon. (b) Write down a policy a of your choosing. Perform two steps of the operator T, for your policy, followed by one step of T..
- When Amanda wakes up in the morning, she will either purchase Timbits (T) or a bagel (B). This is represented by the utility function U(T, B) = 15T + 10B. %3D In addition, the price of a bagel is $2 and the price of Timbits is $0.50 apiece. Amanda has a daily budget of $5 to spend on breakfast. She is planning to purchase 1 Bagel (B) and 6 Timbits (T). Is this allocation of goods utility-maximizing? a) Yes, since MUt/Pt = MUb/Pb b) No, Amanda should only consume Timbits c) Yes, since this bundle lies on Amanda's budget line d) No, Amanda should only consume bagels(,) →u(い)=2 (4, 1) >u c4,1) = 3 (1,4)= uCI,4) = 5 %3D %3D C,6)→ 4C1,16)=1は O C,16)>(6,1)~( ) 11い) Find utility function represen ting these Pefrences.You have k20per week to spend and two possible uses for this money,:telephoning friends back home and drinking coffee.

- Suppose your utility function for money is a square-root function of its value in US dollars. So, for instance, $400 is worth 20 utils for you, $961 is worth 31 utils for you, and $62.5K is worth 250 utils for you. Now, let’s say your annual salary is $90K, although there is a small risk (p = 0.05) that something catastrophic will happen and reduce your income for the year to $14.4K. An insurance company comes along and offers to insure you against the loss of your salary. The cost of the insurance is $4,736. If you buy the policy and catastrophe strikes, the insurance company will pay out the $75,600 that you would otherwise have lost. From the standpoint of maximizing expected utility, would buying this insurance be a good deal for you? What would be the insurance company’s expected monetary value of selling you the policy?DERIVATIVES Differentiate f(x)=(4x4+3x)(2x4+2x) Let u(x)=(4x4+3x) and v(x)=(2x4+2x)Could you please help me only with the last part-money metric utility function?
