Standard principles of rational decision assume that an option’s utility is both comprehensive and accessible. These features constrain interpretations of an option’s utility. This essay presents a way of understanding utility and laws of utility. It explains the relation between an option’s utility and its outcome’s utility and argues that an option’s

We study the interaction of flexible capital utilization and depreciation for expected returns and investment of firms. Empirically, an investment strategy that buys (sells) equities with low (high) utilization rates earns 5% per annum. Utilization predicts excess returns beyond other production-based variables.

, 2007 A major virtue of von Neumann-Morgenstern utilities, for example, in the theory of general financial equilibrium (GFE), is that they ensure time consistency: consumption-portfolio plans (for the future) are in fact executed (in the future) — assuming that there is perfect foresight about relevant endogenous variables.

A program does not exist alone. It must be translated into a form suitable for machine execution, and executed on a specific machine. In most cases, a high level language permits the formulation of the program in terms that do not depend on the machine. The main benefit derived from this machine independence is portability. However there are situations

The first two sections of this paper say more about what utility is, why people are interested in it, and how it is interpreted and used in the management and behavioral ...
