The kingdom of Arendelle has equal numbers of two types of workers, domestic servants and ice sellers, which both earn $1,000 per week. All workers face a risk of being laid off next year due to bad market conditions, in which case they will have an income of only $250/week from an alternative part-time job. Domestic servants have a 10% probability of being laid off, and ice sellers have a 30% probability. All have the same utility function: U = ln(C).
