Title:Risky Choice and Boundary Conditions
Language:English
Abstract: We implement a multi-period individual choice problem, where the evolution of earnings across past rounds affects working capital available for the next round. In addition, we impose treatments which reinitialize working capital and/or hold out a bonus for not exhausting working capital (i.e. going bankrupt). This allows us to ascertain the effect of the proximity of the bankruptcy boundary on risky choice.
