- Gabby flips a fair coin and it shows heads, When trying to guess what the coin will show on the next flip, Gabby guesses heads because she thinks t ls more likely to occur than tals since the coin showed heads on the last fip. Gabby suffers from the: hothand fallecy gemblers failecy hot potato fallacy. gambler's myth,We learned that we can use choice between a gamble over someone's best and worst outcomes and getting an outcome of interest (like getting pizza) for certain as a way to assign numeric values to utility (on a scale of 0 to 1). Using this method, if you are indifferent between the following: A gamble that has a 0.3 chance of your best possible outcome (and no lower chance), and a 0.7 chance of your worst possible outcome. Getting pizza for certain. it means that your utility for getting pizza is:Elena applies for private insurance and resents the number of questions asked on the application. She states that since the primary contribution of insurance companies is to pool the risk of many individuals, they should care less about the characteristics of any one applicant and more about increasing the number of the patients that they insure. Furthermore, she states, when she had insurance through her employer, she hardly had to answer any questions. Use economic reasoning to explain to Elena the insurance company's behavior
- Hello experts, I have posted this question many times in chegg, but every time people answering this question to use ai tool like chatgpt, please dont use gpt and other ai tool. Can we change one of the most fundamental definition of economic theory: The way we calcutale the cost of risk? Don't use chatgpt or other ai tool. If you know correct answer then attempt if you gave wrong answer then i have 23 chegg study accounts, i told you if the answer wrong then i gave 23 dislikes for you and more from my friends accounts also.Jacob is considering buying hurricane insurance. Currently, without insurance, he has a wealth of $80,000. A hurricane ripping through his home will reduce his wealth by $60,000. The chance of this happening is 1%. An insurance company will offer to compensate Jacob for 80% of the damage that any tornado imposes, provided he pays a premium. Jacob’s utility function for wealth is given by U(w) = In (w). (A) What is the maximum amount Jacob is willing to pay for this insurance? Show work and explain.Suppose Jessica has two choices: receive $12000 and 30 utils or take a gamble that has a 55% chance of a $20000 and 45 utils, and a 45% chance of a $0 payoff and zero utility. Assuming Jessica is a utility maximizer, what will she likely choose? a) Jessica will not take the gamble b) Jessica will take the gamble c) It cannot be determined d) Jessica is indifferent
- Asap Suppose Faith and Mickey are playing both dictator and ultimatum games. Faith is the dictator/proposer and has $80 to allocate. Based on repeated experiments of the dictator and ultimatum games, what payouts to Mickey would be most consistent with the findings of behavioral economists? Multiple Choice O. Mickey receives $0 from the dictator game and $8 from the ultimatum game. O. Mickey receives $47 from the dictator game and $42 from the ultimatum game. O. Mickey receives $40 from the dictator game and $40 from the ultimatum game. O. Mickey receives $33 from the dictator game and $38 from the ultimatum game.A company has a dental plan for its employees. According to behavioral economics, the participation rate will be about the same wether people are given en easy enrollment form to fill out or are enrolled automatically but given en easy opt-out form to complete if they don’t want to participateAdam has just purchased a new car and has to decide whether to buy insurance to cover his new car in the event of a loss. Assume that Adam knows the probability (p) of him having an accident and losing his new car. The car is valued at L and the amount of insurance to purchase for this value is X. Adam’s entire wealth after buying the car is W. Let r be unit price of insurance. Briefly explain the problem of the insurance company and show that for insurance to be actuarially fair, the premium must equal the probability of accident.
- In 'the dictator' game, one player (the dictator) chooses how to divide a pot of $10 between herself and another player (the recipient). The recipient does not have an opportunity to reject the proposed distribution. As such, if the dictator only cares about how much money she makes, she should keep all $10 for herself and give the recipient nothing. However, when economists conduct experiments with the dictator game, they find that dictators often offer strictly positive amounts to the recipients. Are dictators behaving irrationally in these experiments? Whether you think they are or not, your response should try to provide an explanation for the behavior.Suppose that you graduate from college next year and you have two career options: 1) You will start a job in an investment bank paying a $100,000 annual salary. 2) You will start a Ph.D. in economics and, as a student, you will receive a $20,000 salary. You are bad with decisions, so you are letting a friend of yours decide for you by flipping a coin. The probabilities of options 1 and 2 are, therefore, each 50%. a) Illustrate, using indifference curves, your preferences regarding consumption choices in the two different states of the world. Assume that you are risk-averse. [Include also the 45 degrees line in your figure] b) Now show how the indifference curves would change if you were substantially more risk averse than before. Explain. c) Now show the indifference curves if you are risk neutral and if you are risk loving. d) Show your expected utility preferences from point a) mathematically.Consider the following Bayesian game. There are two players 1 and 2. Both players choose whether to play A or B. Two states are possible, L and R. In the former, players play a stag-hunt game, and in the latter, players play a matching pennies game. Suppose that Player 2 knows the state, while Player 1 thinks that the state is L with probability q and R with probability 1 ! q. Payo§s in each state respectively satisfy: Player 1 is the row player, and their payo§ is the first to appear in each entry. Player 2 is thecolumn player and their payo§ is the second to appear in each entry. (a) What is the set of possible strategies for the two players in this game? (b) Find all the pure strategy Bayes Nash equilibria for any value of q 2 (0, 1).
