Ans 15)
Expected Payoff for Investors=1/2(E(X1)+E(X2))-15
=0.5*(100+100)-15=$85
Yes this payoff is not random variable because though X1 and X2 are randoms E(X1) and E(X2) as well as V(X1) & V(X2) wont change
Hence Net payoff can not be random
Ans b)
Variance of Investor's payoff=(V(X1)*0.5^2+V(X2)*0.5^2+2*covariance (X1,X2))*(0.5*0.5)
=(10*0.25+10*0.25+0=$5)
variance of Investors Net payoff is $5
