    An economy populated by infinitely many identical two-periods-lived generations, with nonproducible and non-storable consumption goods (endowments) is considered. Agents receive endowments when young. Endowments vary stochastically over time and can be exchanged for money. Frobenius' theorem is used to establish the existence of weights for which the averaged sums of representative agents' expected utilities are maximized at the asset equilibrium allocation.
