wealth variable Xi dominates Yi via ith-order stochastic dominance for i = M,N. We show that the 50-50 lottery [XN + YM, YN … + XM] dominates the lottery [XN + XM, YN + YM] via (N + M)th-order stochastic dominance. The basic idea is that a decision … maker exhibiting (N + M)th-order stochastic dominance preference will allocate the state-contingent lotteries in such a way …
