Suppose we have two ice cream sellers, Blue Cool Ice Cream and Red Mango Ice Cream, deciding where to locate along a 1 kilometer long linear beach. Beachgoers are uniformly spread out everywhere along the beach. They do not like walking, and they view the ice cream from the two sellers as homogenous goods. Because of this, they will always buy from the nearest seller. The sellers cannot choose their price, only the location. A strategy for a player in this game is a distance between 0m and 1000m, which represents where the player will locate. For example, a distance of 0m is a strategy. The payoffs are the percentages of the market that each seller captures (depending on their two strategies). For example, if Blue Cool chooses 0m and Red Mango chooses 1000m, their payoffs are 50% and 50%. If the two sellers locate at exactly the same spot, they share the market and get 50% each. Suppose each player can only choose from 5 locations: 0m, 250m, 500m, 750m, 1000m. Is playing 0m is a…

Two discount stores (Megastore and Superstore) are interested in expanding their market share through advertising. The table below depicts the strategic outcomes (profits) of both stores with and without advertising. Superstore - Advertise Superstore - Don't Advertise Megastore - Advertise $95, $80 $305, $55 Megastore - Don't Advertise $65, $285 $165, $115 When the game does reach Nash Equilibrium, the payoffs for both stores will be a) Megastore $95 and Superstore $80 b) Megastore $305 and Superstore $55 c) Megastore $65 and Superstore $285 d) Megastore $165 and Superstore $115
Tyler and Pam are arrested and charged with armed robbery. The police interview both suspects separately about their involvement in the crime. Each suspect has to make a decision. They can betray the other suspect by confessing that they both committed the crime, or they can cooperate with the other suspect by remaining silent. The table shows the sentences that Tyler and Pam will receive given their choices. Use the table to answer the question. What will be the dominant strategy outcome for Tyler and Pam? They both get 10 years. Pam gets 5 years, and Tyler gets 15 years. O They both get 12 years. O Tyler gets 5 years, and Pam gets 15 years. Tyler Stay silent Confess Stay silent Pam gets 10 years Tyler gets 10 years Pam gets 15 years Pam Tyler gets 5 years Confess Pam gets 5 years Tyler gets 15 years Pam gets 12 years Tyler gets 12 years
Part 1 Sam and Ray do not like each other and will be miserable if they attend the same event. Both are going out Friday night to either the bar or a concert; and Sam will publicly tweet where he is going before Ray makes his plans. Each will get 6 payoff from going to a concert and 2 benefit from going to the bar if the other is not there. If both go to the same venue, they will get a payoff of zero. Write a game tree for this game and find the equilibrium strategy and equilibrium payoffs clearly labeling both. Part 2 Take the game from the question above and switch the order of the decisions. Write a game tree for this game and find the equilibrium strategy and equilibrium payoffs clearly labeling both. Has the equilibrium strategies and payoffs changed from the question above? Explain why.
Game Theory
Keith and Blake play a simultaneous one-shot game. Keith chooses between Top and Bottom, whereas Blake chooses between left and right. Payoffs are given by (Keith's payoffs are listed first and Blake's payoffs second): Top+left: 3,-6. Top+right:0,-7 Bottom+left:4,0. Bottom+right:-2,6. In a mixed strategy equilibria, Keith will play Top with what probability? 1. 6/7 2. 1/4 3. 1/2 4. 1/7 5. 0 6. 3/4
