Exercise Exercise 1. Consider the Cournot game G = (I, (Ai, Ti)i≤1) such that: 1. I = {1,2} is the set of firms. 2. AR+ is the set of firm i's strategies. 3. TAR is firm i's payoff function defined by, for some c ≥ 0, Ti(Qi, 9−i) = max{1 − (qi + q−i), 0}qi — cqi. Answer the following questions: 1. Find all (pure-strategy) Nash equilibria in the case of c = = 0. 2. Find all (pure-strategy) Nash equilibria in the case of c = (0, 1). 3. Find all (pure-strategy) Nash equilibria in the case of c = [1,∞). Exercise 2. Consider the Braess's paradox G 1. I = {1,2,. , 10} is the set of people. ... 2.

Assume a security follows a geometric Brownian motion with volatility parameter = 0.2. Assume the initial price of the security is 21 and the interest rate is 0. It is known that the price of a down-and-in barrier option and a down-and-out barrier option with strike price 19 and expiration 30 days have equal risk-neutral prices. Compute this common risk-neutral price.
4. Valuation of a Derivative Consider a derivative on a stock with the time to expiration T and the following payoff: 0 K₁ 0 if ST K₁. What is the present value of the derivative? Provide an analytic expression of the price using N(), the cumulative probability distribution function of a standard normal random variable.
