First Mover Advantage Read the overview below and complete the activities that follow. When to make a strategic move is often as crucial as what move to make. Timing is especially important when first-mover advantages and disadvantages exist. Under certain conditions, being first to initiate a strategic move can have a high payoff in the form of a competitive advantage that later movers cannot dislodge. Moving first is no guarantee of success, however, since first movers also face some significant disadvantages. Indeed, there are circumstances in which it is more advantageous to be a fast follower or even a late mover. Because the timing of strategic moves can be consequential, it is important for company strategists to be aware of the nature of first-mover advantages and disadvantages and the conditions favoring each type of move. The goal of this exercise is for you to understand when being a first mover, a fast follower, or a late mover is most advantageous. Companies…

(a) Assuming that each fishery chooses fi ∈ (0, F), to maximize its payoff function, derive the players’ best response functions and find a Nash equilibrium. (b) Is the equilibrium you found in (a) unique or not? What are equilibrium payoffs? 4 (c) Suppose that a benevolent social planner wants maximize the utility of both fisheries. In other words, the social planner solves the following problem: max w(f1,f2) w(f1, f2) = u1(f1, f2) + u2(f1, f2) =2 ln(f1) + 2 ln(f2) + 2 ln(F − f1 − f2). Find the social planner’s solution. (d) What are the fisheries’ payoffs if the quantities of fish they catch are solutions to the social planner’s problem? What can you say about the Nash equilibrium quantities of fish being caught as compared to the social planner’s solution? (e) If fishery j decides to follow the recommendation of the social planner, how much fish will firm i catch?
A manufacture has been selling 1900 television sets a week at $510 each. A market survey indicates that for each $16 rebate offered to a buyer, the number of sets sold will increase by 160 per week. a) Find the demand function p(x), where a is the number of the television sets sold per week. p(x)=\ b) How large rebate should the company offer to a buyer, in order to maximize its revenue? S c) If the weekly cost function is 161500+ 1702, how should it set the size of the rebate to maximize its profit?

enata and Jerome operate a company that makes miniature electronic surveillance drones from a warehouse in an industrial estate. Each drone costs them $49 to make and has additional fixed costs of $275 (per drone). On average, Renata and Jerome sell 85 drones per week for a price of $64 each. Renata and Jerome then decide to have a sale and reduces the price of each drone to an even numbered price between $54 and $60 inclusive. During the sale, they sell on average 150 devices per week.
