8.5 Technology Adoption: During the adoption of a new technology a CEO (player 1) can design a new task for a division manager. The new task can be either high level (H) or low level (L). The manager simultaneously chooses to invest in good training (G) or bad training (B). The payoffs from this interaction are given by the following matrix: Player 1 C. H L Player 2 G 5, 4 2,-2 B -5, 2 0,0 a. Present the game in extensive form (a game tree) and solve for all the Nash equilibria and subgame-perfect equilibria. b. Now assume that before the game is played the CEO can choose not to adopt this new technology, in which case the payoffs are (1, 1), or to adopt it, in which case the game is played. Present the entire game in extensive form. How many proper subgames does it have? Solve for all the Nash equilibria and subgame-perfect equilibria of the game described in (b).

need to solve the question in handwriting Q2: A father wants to save for his child's college expenses. The father opens an account with 7% annual interest. Assuming that the child enters college at age of 18 and the expenses of the college is $40,000 per year. The college is 4-year program. The father will make equal annual payments at the end of each year starting from the end of the birthing year until the age of 18. What will be the annual payment (deposit) that the father shall make? Support your answer by cash flow diagram. (
An civil engineer wants to make a lump-sum deposit of $12000 now into an investment account that pays 7 percent per year, and you plan to withdraw an equal end-of-year amount of $1300 for 5 years, starting next year. At the end of the sixth year, you plan to close your account by withdrawing the remaining money. Define the engineering economy symbols involved and find the future by using cash flow.

Engineering Economics Subject A cash flow series is increasing geometrically at the rate of 10% per year. The initial payment at time 3 is $10,000 with increasing annual payments ending at time 50. Interest rate is 15% compounded annually for the first 15 years and 5% compounded annually for the remaining 35 years. Find the present worth equivalent to this cash flow.
A business investment option of $4000 is available that has earning capacity of 5% per year for 5 year. At the same time you want to purchase a much needed raw material for your product that is available in $3000 that has inflation rate of 9% per year. Discuss in the light of Engineering Economics Principles, if you would immediately invest or buy the raw materials and vice versa.
