4. A model of network externalities. Suppose that there are 50 potential consumers in the market for a new technology that exhibits network effects. There is a uniform distribution of consumers with individual valuations, v, ranging from S1, $2,.., S50. Consumer valuation from consuming the technology is given by vN, where N is the number of consumers adopting the technology. Consumers with purchase the product as long as their valuation is greater or equal to the price, so that the marginal consumer has a valuation such that p3vN. The number of consumers adopting the technology is given by the number of people with valuation greater than y, i.e. N = 50 - v. %3D a) Using the information above, derive the relationship between the price of the product and the number of consumers adopting the product, N.

At this point, Sonia has a choice: she can SLASH her water barrels, eliminating her water supplies; or she can NOT SLASH, which keeps her water supplies completely intact. Having seen the action taken by Sonia, Jen can choose to CHARGE or to WAIT. The payoffs are as follows: if Sonia the Terrible chooses to SLASH and Jen CHARGES, the payoffs are (100, 20) to Sonia and Jen, respectively. If Sonia SLASHES and Jen WAITS, the payoffs are (10, 30). On the other hand, if Sonia chooses to NOT SLASH and Jen CHARGES, the payoff is (20, 15). If Sonia opts to NOT SLASH and Jen chooses to WAIT, the payoffs are (40, 10), respectively.
