Jane owns a house that is worth $100,000. She cares only about her wealth, which consists entirely of the house. In any given year, there is a 20% chance that the house will burn down. If it does, its scrap value will be $22,500. Jane’s utility function of income is 1/2 ( ) u W W= . a) b) c) d) Is Jane risk averse, risk neutral or a risk lover? Explain. What is the expected monetary value of Jane’s uncertainty? What is the maximum that Jane is willing to pay to completely insure her house against being destroyed by the fire? Say that Homer is the president of an insurance company. He is risk neutral and has a utility function of the following type ( ) u W W= , where W is his wealth. What is the lowest price at which he is willing to provide a fair insurance contract (insurance premium equals expected loss) to completely insure Jane’s risk?

1. Use the method of variation of parameters to solve the differential equation \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 4y = \csc{2x}. 2. Use the method of undetermined coefficients to solve the differential equation \frac{d^3y}{dx^3} - 2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + \frac{dy}{dx} = x. 3. Given the piecewise continuous function f(t) = \begin{cases} 8, & 0 \le t < 1, \\ 0, & 1 \le t < 2, \\ t, & t \ge 2. \end{cases} i. Use the definition of Laplace transform to find \mathcal{L}\{f(t)\}. ii. Hence or otherwise, find the Laplace transform for \mathcal{L}\{tf(t)\}. 4. Find the Laplace transform of the following functions. (a) f(t) = t^3\delta(t - 5). (b) f(t) = e^t \sinh{3t}.
