Please no written by hand and no emage Consider the following Stackelberg duopoly. Both firms produce a homogenous good. Firm 1 chooses how much to supply first. Firm 2 chooses how much to supply after observing the quantity supplied by firm 1. The market demand is Q = 100 - 10P. For firm i, the total cost of production is TC (q) = 5q₁. In a Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibrium, how much does firm 2 produce?
Please state if there are any strictly-dominant strategies. If there are, please list the N.E.

Firm x is and oligopoly market. Market demand is inelastic, so this firm can increase profit by rasing prices. However, if it does so, it might lose sales to its competitors. How can this frim use price signaling to increase its profits?
Please no written by hand Two supermarkets, Apple Mart and Family Fresh compete against each other. Due to the improvement in AI, they are both are considering switching from Cashier lanes to the use of only Self-check machine lanes. Cost saving, customer response, and the interdependence between their strategies could result in the payoff metrix below. The first entry is for Apple Mart. i. Determine whether each store has a dominant strategy and state it below. If none, enter NONE:Apple Mart: _________________________________Family Fresh: _______________________________ii. Determine the Nash equilibrium (or equilibria).____________________________________________iii. What is the interpretation of your answer to ii?
Cournot Duopoly: Suppose two firms produce identical products and they have identical constant production costs. When these two firms secretly agree to collude, these firms need to their output level and their price. If the collusion is successful, each firm earns of the monopoly profit. a. Cut; raise; half b. Cut; raise; one-third c. Raise; cut; half d. Raise; cut; one-third
3. The repeated prisoner's dilemma (PD) can be used as a simple framework to inves- tigate tacit collusion. Consider repeating the following stage game: A B A R, R 100, 24 B 24, 100 50, 50 where R is either 64 or 96. In each round, the players simultaneous choose an action (A or B). After both have made their choice the outcome is revealed, along with the payoffs for the round. Then a random number is drawn to determine whether the repeated game will continue for at least one more round. The probability the game will continue is c5, which is either ¹ or ³. 2 4 (a) Suppose the stage game were played just once (which is equivalent to c5 = 0). Find the Pareto efficient outcomes in the stage game. Does either player have a dominated strategy; if so, which? What is the one-shot Nash equilibrium pre- diction of the stage game? How does this prediction vary with the parameter R? (b) For the indefinitely repeated game, explain: i. Why both players choosing the strategy All B is a subgame…
Consider the example at the beginning of the chap- ter. Suppose that there are only two blockbusters jockeying for position: Warner Bros.'s Harry Potter and Fox's Narnia. Suppose that blockbusters released in November share a total of $500 million in ticket revenues, whereas blockbusters released in Decembershare a total of $800 million(a) Formulate the game played by Warner Bros. and Fox.
MCQ 26 In game theory, a dominant strategy can best be described as: A a strategy played by a dominant firm to raise its market share В a strategy played by a firm to dominate its rivals C I do not want to answer this question. D all the answers to this question are correct E a strategy that leaves every player in a game better off F a strategy that is optimal for a player, irrespective of what the other players do
H7. For q1=120-2p1-p2 and q2=120-2p2+p1, show that the duopolists have incentives to collude as well as find the -joint profit-maximizing price, output and profit and find each firm’s price, output and profit. What is the optimal defection of each firm, is collusion Nash equilibrium? Show in 2x2 matrix. Is it a prisoner’s dilemma?
Please help with #4- A and B
There are two firms in the market (duopoly). These two firms are competingsimultaneously. The first firm chooses its output level (x) by predicting the second firm’soutput (y). Let c denote the total cost function c(x) = x and c(y) = y. Also, let’s assumethat the inverse demand function is p(Y) = 7 - Y where Y = x + y. (1) Obtain the reactionfunction of the first firm. (2) Find the equilibrium (output and profit of each firm) whentwo firms simultaneously compete
Game Theory Question Consider the following normal form entry deterrence game between an incumbent monopolist and a potential entrant. Potential entrant Stay out 400,0 Enter PH 200,40 Incumbent PL 100,-10 150,0 a) Can you find any pure strategy Nash equilibrium/a in this game? b) Assume playing mixed strategies, find their best response functions and draw them in a diagram. c) Assume the incumbent firm can observe the opponent's choice before he decides and that the potential entrant knows this, will the potential entrant enter? d) Write down the sequential (extensive form) game and find the subgame perfect equilibrium. Explain the outcome. e) How many strategies does each player have?
