Hi everyone,
In the course material, Chapter 5 -Question 5.4 and Question 5.5.
It says that proportion 'a' is invested in Equity A and the rest in non-interest security but in the answer nowhere (1-a) comes in to picture as it was done in Question 5.4 and 5.5.
Also won't the E(U(w)) in question 5.5 be "0.5*log(100a -18a) + 0.5*log(100a+20a) " since 'a' proportion of her wealth(100) is 100a and return on '-18%' will be '100a * (-.18)' . Therefore total wealth will be '100a-18a' not '100-18a', similarly for the other part.
