We show that an agent’s willingness-to-pay for an arbitrary probability perturbation can be expressed as a cash-flow pricing formula for hypothetical cash flows linked to changes in the survival function. Our cash-flow equivalent formulation provides a way to compute hedging strategies and decompose probability prices into expected...
