| schweitzdm | How is 1 false? The AN notes state: "it is possible to assign a utility score to any portfolio" A utility score will differ from person to person, but for John Doe, he could use utility scores to rank the two portfolios, couldn't he? |
| charliedba | You can assign an utility score but you cannot say 10 is 5 times better than 2. |
| sangiljin | Utility score is "ordinal" or "interval", not "ratio". |
| chesschh | UTILITY THEORY IS A MATTER OF RISK TOLERANCE, NOT WHICH IS GREATER |
I was very pleased with your notes and question bank. I especially like the mock exams because it helped to pull everything together.
