Newfoundland’s fishing industry has recently declined sharply due to overfish- ing, even though fishing companies were supposedly bound by a quota agree- ment. If all fishermen had abided by the agreement, yields could have been maintained at high levels. LO4
Model this situation as a prisoner’s dilemma in which the players are Company A and Company B and the strategies are to keep the quota and break the quota. Include appropriate payoffs in the matrix. Explain why overfishing is inevitable in the absence of effective enforcement of the quota agreement.
Provide another environmental example of a prisoner’s dilemma.
In many potential prisoner’s dilemmas, a way out of the dilemma for a would-be cooperator is to make reliable character judgments about the trustworthiness of potential partners. Explain why this solution is not avail-
able in many situations involving degradation of the environment.

- 4. Consider a three-player bargaining, where the players are negotiating over a surplus of one unit of utility. The game begins with player 1 proposing a three-way split of the surplus. Then player 2 must decide whether to accept the proposal or to substitute for player 1's proposal his own alternative proposal. Finally, player 3 must decide whether to accept or reject current proposal (it is player 1's if player 2 accepts or player 2's if player 2 offer a new one). If he accepts, then the players obtain the specified shares of the surplus. If player 3 rejects, then the players each get 0. (a) Draw the extensive form game of this perfect-information game.

For example, its citizens were worried about the future of Opel, a German car brand that was part of the ailing General Motors. Some wanted the government to make sure jobs were saved no matter what. Others, however, were more hesitant and worried about becoming the government becoming too interventionist. Traditionally since the Second World War the German government has seen itself as a referee in market issues and has avoided trying to control parts of the economy. It would regulate anti-competitive behaviour, for example, but not try to run many industries. However in the recession of 2009 when the economy was shrinking the government was forced to spend more to stimulate demand and had to intervene heavily to…arrow_forward10) GE Fridges Some GE refrigerators have ice and water dispensers that won't dispense ice or water unless your filter authenticates as an official component produced by GE. Suppose one popular model costs $800 to produce, and each filter costs just $10 to produce. Suppose further that GE has categorized their consumers into two groups: low-volume users, who buy two filters per year and value the water and ice dispensing fridge at $1000, and high-volume users, who buy six filters per year and value the water and ice dispensing fridge at $1200. GE is considering two pricing strategies: ● Pricing strategy 1: $980 for refrigerator & $10 for filters Pricing strategy 2: $940 for refrigerator & $25 for filters a) Which pricing strategy would GE prefer? b) Based on the information in the question, I want you to come up with a better pricing strategy than what's been proposed.

Suppose that you are an airline executive and you come to work one morning to find a memorandum on our desk indicating that the Boeing 747 that your company leased to fly between New York and London is bringing in revenues of $200,000 per day. You also know that the direct operating expenses (wages for the flight crew, aviation fuel, and that awful airline food) are $180,000 per day. Lastly, suppose you calculate that the interest cost of the loan to pay for the airplane was $40,000 per day. Should you continue to fly the plane?
