For each of the utility functions below, compute the Arrow-Pratt coefficients of risk-aversion. Say whether the utility functions have constant absolute risk aversion, increasing absolute risk aversion, or decreasing absolute risk aversion. (a) u(w) = a + Bw where B > 0. (b) u(w) = w2. (c) u(w) = w1/2 (d) u(w) = wl-/(1-0) where o € (0,1). (e) u(w) =1-e-aw where a > 0.

10 Greta, an elderly investor, has a degree of risk aversion of A= 5 when applied to return on wealth over a one-year horizon. She is pondering two portfolios, the S&P 500 and a hedge fund, as well as a number of 1-year strategies. (All rates are annual and continuously compounded.) The S&P 500 risk premium is estimated at 9% per year, with a SD of 17%. The hedge fund risk premium is estimated at 9% with...
