风险厌恶与确定性等价

凹的 v 使任何赌局的期望效用低于其均值的效用;确定性等价是与该赌局效用相等的确定财富;均值与确定性等价之间的差距就是风险溢价。

1. The Jensen gap

2. Certainty equivalent and risk premium

Certainty equivalent and risk premium

3. Measuring curvature

4. Applications in sequence

Applications in sequence

5. The Jensen direction

For a risk-averse consumer, how does EU compare with v of EM?

6. The certainty equivalent

For v the square root, 50-50 states 225 and 25, EU equals 10. What is the certainty equivalent?

7. The risk premium

Same gamble, mean 125, certainty equivalent 100. What is the risk premium and what does it buy?

8. Curvature and wealth

For v the square root, what happens to absolute risk aversion as wealth grows?

9. A modest gamble's CE

For v the square root and 50-50 states 121 and 81, compute the certainty equivalent, and write the number.

10. The premium there

Same gamble, compute the risk premium, and write the number.

11. A third gamble's certainty equivalent

For v the square root and 50-50 states 49 and 169, the EU is 10. What is the certainty equivalent?

12. Risk aversion that fades

For v the square root, absolute risk aversion at wealth w is one over twice root w. What happens between 100 and 400?

13. The premium as a willingness to pay

For the 50-50 gamble over 100 and 36, the EU is 8 and the mean is 68. What is the risk premium?

14. The Jensen gap again

For the 50-50 gamble over 225 and 25, what is the gap between v of the mean and the EU of 10?

15. EU of the third gamble

For v the square root and 50-50 states 49 and 169, compute the expected utility, and write the number.

16. Premium of the third gamble

Same 50-50 gamble over 49 and 169, compute the risk premium, the mean minus the certainty equivalent, and write the number.
