To win the war, O a. you must attack the west coast, only if you have credible information that the enemy is defending the east coast. Ob. you must attack the west coast, and information about whether the enemy is defending the east or the west coast is irrelevant to you. Oc. you must attack the west coast, only if you have credible information that the enemy is defending the west coast. O d. you must never attack the west coast, and information about whether the enemy is defending the east or the west coast is irrelevant to you.

There are two firms, each having the option of polluting during production or cleaning up its production process such that it doesn't pollute. Of course, polluting is cheaper than not polluting. The payoffs for each of the choice combinations are shown in the decision matrix below. Firm B Pollute Don't Pollute $75,000 $25.000 $75,000 $10,000 $10,000 $25,000 $25.000 What kind of commitment strategy could keep these firms from polluting? Instructions: In order to receive full credit, you must make a selection for each option. For correct answer(s), click the option once to place a check mark. For incorrect answer(s), click the option twice to empty the box. The environmental protection agency conducts a study on the dangers of pollution ?

Consider the following sequential bargaining game. Two players, A and B, have a total of $240,000 to divide between them. A makes an offer first, then B agrees or makes a counter offer and so on. Delay in reaching an agreement is very costly in that during the time between two offers the 'pot' shrinks by 50%. There are at most 4 rounds, i.e. if A rejects B's second offer, both players get zero. (a) Draw the game tree. (b) Find the subgame perfect equilibrium.
Tom, Mary and Jill have apartments in the same building. A security system for their building costs $750. Tom is willing to pay $100 for the security system, Mary is willing to pay $300 and Jill is willing to pay $300. They have a meeting to vote on whether to pay $250 each for the security system. At least two of them must vote for the system to be installed before the vote is passed. The efficient outcome is to have the security system installed. After the meeting the security system will, which illustrates_____________________.

A game involves two players: player A and player B. Player A has three strategies a1, a2 and a3 while player B has three strategies b1, b2 and b3. Player B b1 b2 b3 a1 -40,30 70,20 -10,120 Player A a2 40,60 80,80 60,20 a3 -30,40 -50,110 150, -70 Assuming that this is a one-time game, answer the following questions: Is there any dominant strategy for each player? What is the secure strategy of each player. What is the Nash equilibrium of the game?
Mohamed and Kate each pick an integer number between 1 and 3 (inclusive). They make their choices sequentially.Mohamed is the first player and Kate the second player. If they pick the same number each receives a payoff equal to the number they named. If they pick a different number, they get nothing. What is the SPE of the game? a. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate is indifferent between 1, 2 and 3. b. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2, and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. c. Mohamed chooses 1 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2 and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. d. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 3.
Only typed answer and don't use chat gpt and don't answer in table 2. Charlie consumes apples (A) and bananas (B). His utility function is . The price of apples is $1, the price of bananas is $2, and Charlie’s income is $40. The price of bananas suddenly falls to $1. (a) Before the price change, how many apples and bananas did Charlie consume? (b) After the price change, how many apples and bananas did Charlie consume? (c) If after the price change, Charlie’s income had changed so that he could only attain his original level of utility, how many apples and bananas would he have consumed? (d) What are the magnitudes of the price, substitution, and income effects for the consumption of bananas?

The magazine Science 84 planned to announce a contest in which anyonecould submit a request for either $20 or $100. If fewer than 20% of the submissions requested $100, then everybody would receive what they requested. If 20% or more asked for $100, then everybody would get nothing. Although the magazine wound up not running the contest, because Lloyds of London was unwilling to insure against losses, we can still analyze what equilibrium would predict. Suppose 100,000 people might participate in the contest, and assume that payoffs are measured in money.a. Assume that every possible participant submits a request for either $20or $100. Find a Nash equilibrium.b. Now suppose that a request form comes only with the purchase of Science 84 and that the magazine costs $21.95. Then each person’s strategy set has three elements: do not buy the magazine, buy the magazine and submit a request for $20, and buy the magazine andsubmit a request for $100. Suppose zero value is attached to…
Consider an entry game. First the entrant decides whether to enter. Then the incumbant decides whether to undercut. Then the entrant decides whether to undercut in turn. If there is only one firm in the market they get 10. If both firms are in the market with no undercutting they get 5. If one firm undercuts they get 7 and the other firm gets 1. If both firms undercut they both get 2. Draw the extensive form of the game and find the subgame perfect equilibrium.
**Practice*** Amy and Bob are playing the following board game:(I) Amy starts. She has three possible actions: Pass, Attack, or Defend.(II) Bob observes what Amy chose, and then chooses between three actions with the same names: Pass, Attack, or Defend.(III) If either player passes, or one attacks and the other defends, then the game ends. But if either both players attack, or if both players defend, then Amy has to choose between two actions: Respond or Not Respond. The payoffs are as follows:- If both players pass, both players get a payoff of 0.- If a player attacks and the other player defends, the player that attacks gets a payoff of 1, while the player that defended gets a payoff of 2.- If a player passes but the other player attacks or defends, the player who passes gets a payoff of -1, and the player who attacked or defended gets a payoff of 3.- If both players attack or both players defend:– If Amy responds, she gets a payoff of 4, and Bob gets a payoff of 0.– If Amy does…
