You play the following bargaining game. Player A moves first and makes Player B an offer for the division of $1000. (For example, Player A could suggest that she take $600 and Player B take $400.) Player B can accept or reject the offer. If he rejects it, the amount of money available drops to $800, and he then make an offer for the division of this amount. If Player A rejects this offer, the amount of money drops to $700 and Player A makes an offer for its division. If Player B rejects this offer, the amount of money drops to $0 and player A keeps the $700. Both players are rational, fully informed, and want to maximize their payoffs. Which player will do best in this game? Assume that monetary divisions must take the form of dollars (rather than cents or smaller denominations) and, in each round, a player will offer at least $1. The player that will do best in this game is because when following his optimal strategy he should receive a payoff of $. (Enter a numeric response using an integer.)

Cooper and Rebecca run the only two lawncare companies in a small town. If they worked independently, they would each earn $3000. If they cooperated, they know they could raise the price of their lawncare services and service fewer lawns, but can each earn $4500. If one person raises prices and other does not, the person who raises prices will earn $1000 and the other will earn $6000. Draw a table representing their dilemm
An incumbent can commit to producing a large quantity of output before the potential rival decides whether to enter. The incumbent chooses whether to commit to produce a small quantity or a large quantity. The rival then decides whether to enter. Enter The payoffs are represented in the game treeillustrated in the figure to the right. What is the subgame perfect Nash equilibrium? (1,800,500) Rival Small O A. The Nash equilibrium is for the incumbent to produce the large quantity and for the rival to not enter regardless of the incumbent's quantity. (3,600,0) Don't enter O B.

Assume the following game situation: If Player A plays UP and Player B plays LEFT then Player A gets $1 and Player B gets $3. If Player A plays UP and Player B plays RIGHT then Player A gets $2 and Player B gets $5. If Player A plays DOWN and Player B plays LEFET then Player A gets $4 and Player B gets $2. If Player A plays DOWN and Player B plays RIGHT then Player A gets $1 and Player B gets $1 What is the Mixed Strategy Equilibrium for Player B? O. (LEFT, RIGHT) = (1/8, 3/8) O. (LEFT, RIGHT) = (1/4, 3/4) O. (LEFT, RIGHT) = (1/2, 1/2) O. (LEFT, RIGHT) = (3/8, 1/8)
Suppose rules of the scenario change such that Villagel and Village2 are having a conflict on the ownership of this stream of nearby river. If both villages decide not to battle against each other, V1 will receive a monetary gain of 20S while V2 will receive a monetary gain of 50S. However, if both decide to battle, there is no monetary gain for both. If V1 decides to attach V2 but V2 stays neutral, V1 receives a gain of 80$ while V2 gets 60S. V2 will get 80S if it attacks V1 and in return V1 does not attack. In this scenario, V1's monetary gain would be just 10$. You are required to construct the pay-off matrix of this scenario.
Consider the following sequential move game. First player A must decide whether to play Out or In. In the former case the game ends and both players earn £5. In the latter case Player B is called to move and has to decide between Roll and Not roll a dice. If Player B chooses Not roll Player A gets 0 and B gets £14. If instead B chooses Roll, a dice is rolled. If a 6 shows up Player A gets 12 and B gets 10. Otherwise, A gets O and B gets 12. The Subgame Perfect Equilibrium of this game is: Select one: a. {In, Not Roll} O b. {Out, Roll} c. {Out} d. {In, Roll} e. {Out, Not Roll}
Game Theory Question A non-profit firm is on a local community online donation platform for a community event it wants to hold (only community members can donate via the website). The event will be held only if the non-profit firm collects $20,000 total from members of the community. Each member values the event at $500. Suppose that there are 100 community members. Community members can only donate by purchasing a lottery ticket from the firm. Each ticket costs $200 and only one ticket can be purchased per member. The proceeds will be collected by the firm. The lottery winner gets a premier meal at a local restaurant that's worth $100. Remember, the firm keeps all the donated money. If the amount of donations is less than $20,000, then the firm returns the donated money to the community members (since there'll be no event held but the lottery winner still gets to eat that fancy meal). If the donations sum up to $20,000, the community event will take place. What are the Nash…
2. Consider the following "centipede game." The game starts with player 1 choosing be- tween terminate (T) and continue (C). If player 1 chooses C, the game proceeds with player 2 choosing between terminate (t) and continue (c).
