The concept of a Nash equilibrium, when applied to an oligopoly, relies on the notion that Firm A in an oligopoly chooses its own best strategy based on which consideration? based on the strategies that other firms have chosen based on the knowledge that other firms are likely to choose their strategies in response to Firm A's choice of a strategy based on the objective of maximizing the collective profits of all firms in the industry based on the internal financial information of Firm A

Macmillan Leaming Monopolistic Competition, Oligopoly and Game Theory End of Chapter Problems Low-fare carriers such as Spirit, Allegiant, and Frontier have been successful at gaining market share by offering low base fares but then charging for everything from seat assignments to snacks to carry-on bags. What action would you recommend to the major airlines (Delta, United, and American) to avoid a prisoners' dilemma outcome? The major airlines should: Merge together to form a single competing airline, which would create cost savings and economies of scale. Decrease the prices of all their tickets so as to compete with the low-fare carriers. Break up their companies into more numerous firms, which would provide greater competition to the low-fare carriers. Create a new class of tickets that will be priced lower and offer fewer amenities, which would compete directly with the low-fare carriers.
