Consider a Cournot duopoly. The inverse demand function of the market is given by p = 10-Q, where p is the market price, and Q = 91 +92 is the aggregate output. The marginal costs of the two firms are C₁ 1 and C₂ = 4. = (a) Solve for the Nash equilibrium of the game including firm out- puts, market price, aggregate output, and firm profits. (b) Now suppose these two firms play a 2-stage game. In stage 1, they produce capacities 9₁ and 92, which are equal to the Nash equilibrium quantities of the Cournot game characterised by part (a). In stage 2, they simultaneously decide on their prices p₁ and P2. The marginal cost for each firm to sell up to capacity is 0. It is impossible to sell more than capacity. The residual demand for 10 Piāj if Pi > Pj firm ij, is Di (Pi, Pj) = 10-Pi 2 = if pipi. (Note, if Pi < Pj 10 - Pi here we assume that the efficient/parallel rationing applies). Prove that it is a Nash equilibrium of the second stage subgame that each firm charges the market clearing…

The payoff matrix in the figure to the right shows the payoffs for a pricing game. If you were firm A, which strategy would you choose? Firm A should A. price high because this is their maximin strategy. B. price low because this is their tit-for-tat strategy. C. price high because this is their dominant strategy. D. price low because this is their dominant strategy. E. price low because this maximizes profits of both firms. Firm B's dominant strategy is to price If this game were repeated a large number of times and you were firm A and you could change your strategy, what might you do? Firm A should O A. use a tit-for-tat strategy by responding in kind to firm B's play. B. use a maximin strategy by maximizing the minimum gain that can be earned. C. use a tit-for-tat strategy by selecting a price that minimizes firm B's profits. D. use a maximin strategy by by responding in kind to firm B's play. E. use a tit-for-tat strategy by maximizing the minimum gain that can be earned. C Price…
