- Let's call a committee of three people a "consumer." (Groups of people often act together as "consumers.") Our committee makes decisions using majority voting. When the committee members compare two alternatives, x and y, they simply take a vote, and the winner is said to be "preferred" by the committee to the loser. Suppose that the preferences of the individuals are as follows: Person 1 likes x best, y second best, and z third best. We write this in the following way: Person 1: x, y, z. Assume the preferences of the other two people are: Person 2: y, z, x; and Person 3 : z, x, y. Show that in this example the committee preferences produced by majority voting violate transitivity. (This is the famous "voting paradox" first described by the French philosopher and mathematician Marquis de Condorcet (1743–1794).)arrow_forwardExercise 4.1 Amy and Bill simultaneously write a bid on a piece of paper. The bid can only be either 2 or 3. A referee then looks at the bids, announces the amount of the lowest bid (without revealing who submitted it) and invites Amy to either pass or double her initial bid. - The outcome is determined by comparing Amy's final bid to Bill's bid: if one is greater than the other then the higher bidder gets the object and pays his/her own bid; if they are equal then Bill gets the object and pays his bid. Represent this situation by means of two alternative extensive frames. Note: (1) when there are simultaneous moves we have a choice as to which player we select as moving first: the important thing is that the second player does not know what the first player did; (2) when representing, by means of information sets, what a player is uncertain about, we typically assume that a player is smart enough to deduce relevant information, even if that information is not explicitly given to…arrow_forward7arrow_forward

The rule of the game is that: each of them will choose a number between and 100 (including 0 and 100). The winner of the game is the one whose chosen number is the closest to [20+* average of everyone's chosen number]. The winner can get $100 form Josie. Everyone choosing 20 is a Nash Equilibrium. (a) True (b) False please explain it in detail.arrow_forwardTwo friends are deciding where to go for dinner. There are three choices, which we label A, B, and C. Max prefers A to B to C. Sally prefers B to A to C. To decide which restaurant to go to, the friends adopt the following procedure: First, Max eliminates one of three choices. Then, Sally decides among the two remaining choices. Thus, Max has three strategies (eliminate A, eliminate B, and eliminate C). For each of those strategies, Sally has two choices (choose among the two remaining). a.Write down the extensive form (game tree) to represent this game. b.If Max acts non-strategically, and makes a decision in the first period to eliminate his least desirable choice, what will the final decision be? c.What is the subgame-perfect equilibrium of the above game? d. Does your answer in b. differ from your answer in c.? Explain why or why not. Only typed Answerarrow_forward
- Anthony, Edward, and Gavin are roommates and are deciding which item to add to their apartment. They each suggest a first choice and then vote on the options. Their first choice, second choice, and third choice preferences are as shown in the following table: 1st Choice 2nd Choice 3rd Choice Antony 50" TV PS4 New Couch Edward PS4 New Couch 50" TV Gavin New Couch Vד י50 PS4 Based on the table, complete the sentence below: The roommates will vote PS4 over a New Couch by| [ Select ] and a New Couch over a 50" TV by [ Select ] . If PS4 is preferred to a [ Select ] V and a [ Select ] is preferred to [ Select ] it might seem that it must be true that the [ Select ] V is the favorite. But in a vote of a a [ Select ] versus a PS4, the [ Select] v wins by 2-1 vote. Hence, when a [ Select ] occurs, choosing a single favorite that is always preferred by a majority becomes [ Select ]arrow_forwardDon't use chat gpt okkk.

They make their choices sequentially.Mohamed is the first player and Kate the second player. If they pick the same number each receives a payoff equal to the number they named. If they pick a different number, they get nothing. What is the SPE of the game? a. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate is indifferent between 1, 2 and 3. b. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2, and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. c. Mohamed chooses 1 and Kate chooses 1 if Mohamed chooses 1, 2 if Mohamed chooses 2 and 3 if Mohamed chooses 3. d. Mohamed chooses 3 and Kate chooses 3.arrow_forward

Anne and Bruce would like to rent a movie, but they can't decide what kind of movie to get: Anne wants to rent a comedy, and Bruce wants to watch a drama. They decide to choose randomly by playing "Evens or Odds." On the count of three, each of them shows one or two fingers. If the sum is even, Anne wins and they rent the comedy; if the sum is odd, Bruce wins and they rent the drama. Each of them earns a payoff of 1 for winning and 0 for losing "Evens or Odds." (a) Draw the game table for "Evens or Odds." (b) Demonstrate that this game has no Nash equilibrium in pure strategies.arrow_forward
