Find all other NE which is not SPE. -3Two business partners jointly own a firm and share equally the revenues. They individually and simultaneously decide how much effort to put into the firm. Let s₁ and s2 denote the effort choices of partner 1 and partner 2, respectively. Assume si € [0, 4]. The cost of effort is given by s? for i E {1, 2}. The firm's revenue is given by 4(81 +82 + bs182) where 0 ≤ b ≤ 1. (Note that the parameter 6 reflects the synergies between the effort levels. b> 0 implies that the more one partner works, the more productive the other partner is.) The payoffs for partners 1 and 2 are: u₁ (81, 82) u2 (81, 82) - = 1 [4(81 +82 +68182)] − 8² - 1 [4(81 +82 + bs182)] – $²
- Two politicians from the same party decide whether to support or oppose the gov- ernment's environmental policy. Politician A prefers that they both support, but Politician B prefers that they both oppose. Both politicians agree that the party should have a coherent position and the worst outcome is that one supports and the other opposes the policy. (a) Formulate this situation as a strategic game - specify the players, actions, and payoffs (you can set-up a table of the actions and payoffs). (b) What are the Nash equilibria of this game? Explain your answer.(a) Stan and Ollie are two students who share a flat. Both of them prefer to live in a clean flat. However, neither is too fond of housecleaning. Each of them receives a payoff of 12 if they both clean the flat. If neither person cleans the flat, they receive a payoff of 6 each. If one person cleans the flat but the other person does not, then the payoff for the person who does the cleaning is 5 and the payoff for the person who doesn't do any cleaning is 15. (i) Write down the payoff matrix of this game. Derive the dominant strategy equilibrium. Is this also a Nash equilibrium? (ii) Expiain your reasoning. Consider a game with N players. Each player chooses Black or White. If a player (b) chooses Black, she gets 100 if everyone else also chooses Black, and she gets 0 if any of the other players does not choose Black. If a player chooses White, she always gets 50. Show that everyone choosing Black and everyone choosing White are both Nash equilibria of this game.3. Find the saddle point, if it exists, for the following game. (b) Solve the following game by using the principle of dominance and find the probabilities of strategies for each player and the value of the game.
