We …This paper uses four different disappointment models to examine the production decision of the competitive firm under … uncertainty when the firm is not only risk-averse, but also disappointment-averse. We show the conditions under which the …

Our study examines the behavior of a risk-averse investor who faces two sources of uncertainty: a random asset price … and inflation risk. Both sources of uncertainty make it difficult to stabilize consumption over time. However, investors … can enter risk-sharing markets, such as futures markets, to manage these risks. We develop a dynamic risk management model …

We estimate the effect of demand and price uncertainty on firms' investment decisions from a panel of manufacturing firms. Uncertainty measures are derived from firms' subjective qualitative expectations. They are close to their theoretical counterparts, the variances of future demand and price...

The prospect theory is one of the most popular decision-making theories. It is based on the S-shaped utility function, unlike the von Neumann and Morgenstern (NM) theory, which is based on the concave utility function. The S-shape brings in mathematical challenges: simple extensions and...
