You consider investing £800 in stocks of the company X for a certain period. There is a possibility for X to merge with Y, in which case you expect your investment to appreciate £300, otherwise you expect it to depreciate £200. Also, rather than investing, you can choose to keep your £800. By using a utility function U(x)=x−−√, and by defining pthe probability that X merges with Y, what is the condition that p must satisfy for your investment to be worthwhile (rounded to two decimal places)?
When a certain glaze is applied to a ceramic surface, the probability is 5% that there will be discoloration, 20% that there will be a crack, and 23% that there will be either discoloration or a crack, or both.
