We normally assumethat the setsAiare disjoint. Because this is a Random variable which cantake onlyfinitely many different values, then it is calledsimpleand any randomvariable taking onlyfinitely many possible values can be written in this 46(binomial tree) A stock, presently worth $20, can increase eachday by $1 or decrease by $1.
