Question 2

Use the graph above to answer the following question. Suppose that Jim is in casino in Las Vegas and wins a 60,000 jackpot.
 
  The staff tells him that he can keep it or play one more game that will allow him to increase his jackpot earnings by an additional 20,000 . The game involves simply flipping a coin. If it turns up heads he earns the extra 20,000 . However, if it turns up tails he loses 20,000 of his 60,000 jackpot. Given the utility function above what is he likely to do and why?

Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The marginal utility of the extra 20,000 is only 1 if he wins. However, the marginal utility that he loses if it comes up tails is 3 . Therefore, Jim will simply take his 60,000 and refuse to play the second game.
