Chapter 2, Problem 24AP
To determine

  1. If you are risk-neutral (that is, neither seek out nor shy away from risk), which of the four options should you choose to maximize your expected returns?
  2. Suppose option 3 and 4 are your only choices. If you could pay your friend $100 to find out extra information about Mike that would indicate with certainty whether he will leave town without paying, would you pay the $100? What does this say about the value of better information regarding risk?
