Economics Question
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…

1. The table below shows a prisoner's dilemma in normal form. Players 1 and 2 each choose between D and C. D C D 2,2 1,10 10, 1 5,5 Answer the following questions. Remember to explain your reasoning. (a) If the game is played only once, what is the equilibrium in dominant strategies? (b) If the game is played three times in a row, what action does each player choose in every round? Suppose that the game is repeated indefinitely. The players do not discount the future. How- ever, the game ends with probability p € (0, 1) after each round. Assume that each player uses the following grim-trigger strategy. Each player chooses C in the first round. Each player chooses C in the current round if both players chose C in every previous round. Each player chooses D in the current round if either player chose D in some previous round. (c) If p = 1, is it optimal for each player to use the grim-trigger strategy above given that the other player uses the grim-trigger strategy above? [Hint: compare…
