Two charities are collecting old clothes in a county that has three towns along a road, as depicted. Each town has 100 inhabitants who will donate one item to the charity that collects closest to them (in case they are equally close, donations are equally divided). Each charity wants to maximize the number of items it collects. Which of the following outcomes survive(s) iterated deletion of dominated strategies? Leftville Rightchester Middlehurst One charity collects in Leftville, the other in Rightchester. Both charities collect in Middlehurst. O Both charities collect in Leftville or both charities collect in Rightchester. One charity collects in Middlehurst, the other in Leftville or Rightchester.

Two rival companies competing in the same market need to decide their plans for future expansion of their stores. The Table below shows the possible outcomes of their mutually interdependent actions (payoffs are profits in £m) Giga Company Titanic Conglomerate No Change Refurbishment of existing stores Large Expansion No Change 30, 40 25, 35 15, 24 Refurbishment of existing stores 35, 30 28, 32 18, 33 Large Expansion 12, 22 18, 20 20, 25 The Nash equilibrium: (A) does not exist. (B) occurs when both firms choose Refurbishment of existing stores. (C) occurs when both firms choose Large Expansion. (D) occurs when both firms choose No Change.
THE PRISONERS' DILEMMA Consider the following simple model of a cocktail party. Alice and Bob are carrying on separate conversations at the party. Alice speaks at volume a and Bob speaks at volume b. The communication benefit to Alice is al(a + b) and the benefit to Bob is b/(a + b). The vocal-strain cost to Alice is ca and the cost to Bob is cb, where c is a parameter. Suppose that the players have two choices: speaking softly at volume 1, or speaking loudly at volume 4. This leads to the following game in strategic form, with Alice choosing the row and Bob choosing the column. a = 1 a = 4 b = 1 0.5-c, 0.5-c 0.8-4c, 0.2-c 0.0400 0.0500 0.0750 0.0800 0.1500 b = 4 0.2 c, 0.8-4c - 0.54c, 0.5-4c For which of the following values of c is this game a prisoners' dilemma? (Mark all values for which this is true.)
You have three tickets to a Celtics game on a night that you are going to be out of town (so the value of unsold tickets is zero to you). There are only four possible buyers of a Celtics ticket. The table below lists the respective reservation prices of these four possible buyers: Customer Reservation Price 1 $25 2 $35 3 $50 4 $60 You consider inviting bids using an English auction to sell your tickets. How much total revenue can you generate using the English auction mechanism from the sale of the three tickets? [Bids can be made in increments of $1.00]
AP CollegeBoard Test Booklet Unit 4 Problem Set Include correctly labeled diagrams, if useful or required, in explaining your answers. A correctly labeled diagram must have all axes and curves clearly labeled and must show directional changes. If the question prompts you to “Calculate," you must show how you arrived at your final answer. Use the graph provided below to answer parts (a)-(e). Marginal Cost Average Total Cost Average Variable Cost 108 100 55 Demand 0 10 21 31 44 57 77 Quantity Marginal Revenue BigMed, a profit-maximizing firm, has a patent on a medical device, making it the only producer of that device. The graph above shows BigMed's demand, marginal revenue, average total cost, average variable cost, and marginal cost curves. (a) Calculate BigMed's total revenue if the firm produces the allocatively efficient quantity. Show your work. (b) Starting at a price of $100, if BigMed were to increase the price by 2%, will the quantity demanded decrease by more than 2%, by less…
