As Adam Reed, the prankster at the helm of ARKHAM ASYLUM. …when all he wanted to do
was get some. …or, more speculatively, perhaps Noah Shulman is not the man to whom we’d
likeAnd happened in. Eat it, Dunk! I remember studying cartoon art in high school and
seeing a drawing of a fantasy comic strip hero. The hero was about as much to look up to.

climate globally.
b) Primarily impacts weather forecasting in tropical regions.

functions.

a) Write out the extensive form of a game between a farmer (playing in the first round) and nature (playing a mixed strategy in the second round). Assume that the farmer can either pay a cash rent of $1500 for land (English system) or 1/2 of crop production to the landlord (sharecropping). Assume the farmer is planting corn and will produce 2 tons of corn. Assume that nature has a 50% chance of playing a strategy in which the price of corn is $3500/ton and a 50% chance of playing a strategy in which the price of corn is $500/ton. The farmer keeps any money left after paying cash rent and sells any corn left after paying the landlord in sharecropping.
b)What is the most that a risk neutral farmer would be willing to pay for an accurate prediction of the price of corn in problem 1 before choosing whether to pay cash rent or sharecrop?

You and I play the following game. Hidden from you, I put a coin in my hand: with probability p it
is a 10 pence coin and otherwise it is a 20 pence coin. You now guess which coin is in my hand:
you guess it is 20 pence with probability s and otherwise you guess it is a 10 pence coin.
You get to win the coin if you guess correctly and otherwise win nothing. What (in terms of p and
s) is your expected gain in pence from playing this game once with me?
Challenge: suppose we are going to play repeatedly and you want to maximise your gain and I
wish to minimise my loss. What value of p should I choose and what value of s should you
choose? (This question is somewhat ill-defined, but it does have an interesting possible answer.)
(Note: anything labelled "challenge" will not be part of the hand-in.)

3. BP and ExxonMobil are engaged in negotiations regarding a new exploration. Simultaneously BP can choose to play Tough (T) or soft (S), while ExxonMobil can opt for Intransigent (I) or Acquiesce (A). The payoffs are as follows. If the choices are T and I, the payoffs are (5, 1) to BP and ExxonMobil, respectively. If the choices are S and I the payoffs are (6, 2) for BP and ExxonMobil, respectively. If the actions of the firms are T and A, the payoffs are (3, 3), and if the actions are S and A, then the payoffs are (4, 4). Which of the following statements are true?
BP has a dominant strategy play S.
The Nash equilibrium is (S, A)
ExxonMobil has a dominant strategy to play A.
The dominant strategy equilibrium is (S, A)
These negotiations resemble a prisoners’ dilemma.

Suppose you have $35,000 in wealth. You have the opportunity to play a game called "Big Bet/Small Bet." In this
game, you first choose whether you would like to make a big bet of $15,000 of a small bet of $5,000. You then roll a
fair die. If you roll a 4, 5, or 6, you win the game and earn $15,000 for the big bet or $5,000 for the small bet. If you
roll a 1, 2, or 3, you lose and lose $15,000 for the big bet and $5,000 for the small bet

The following problem was first considered by John von Neumann and is a fundamentalresult game theory.A and B play the following game:A writes down either number 1 or number 2, and B must guess which one.If the number that A has written down is i and B has guessed correctly, B receives i units from A.If B makes a wrong guess, B pays 4/5 of a unit to A.First we consider the expected gain of player B.Suppose B guesses 1 with probability p and 2 with probability 1 −p.Let X1 denote B’s gain (or loss) in a game where A has written down 1.Let X2 denote B’s gain (or loss) in a game where A has written down 2.(a) Find the pmf of X1 and X2(b) Find B’s expected gain for these two cases, E[X1] and E[X2].(c) What value of p maximizes the minimum possible value of B’s expected gain?Now consider the expected loss of player ASuppose that A writes down 1 with probability q and 2 with probability 1 −q.Let Y1 be A’s loss (or gain) if B chooses number 1.Let Y2 be A’s loss (or gain) if B…

2. In this question, your goal will be to understand whether learning in games is always valuable for players. Consider the
following incomplete-information game. First, nature chooses between one of the following two A and B tables, each with
probability 0.5:
A L
R
B
L
R
U 0,0 6,-3
U-20,-20-7,-16
D -3,6 5,5
D -16,-7 -5,-5
Then, players 1 and 2 simultaneously choose U or D and L or R, respectively, and obtain payoffs according to the table chosen
by nature. Parts I-III present variations of this game under different assumptions about what players know about nature's
move.
Part I: Suppose no player observes nature's move (and it is common knowledge).
(a) Represent the game in extensive form.
(b) Represent the game in Bayesian normal form.
(c) Find the unique BNE.

QUESTION ONE
A. A Nash equilibrium is a strategy profile such that every player's strategy is the best
response to all the other players. It requires that each player makes a best
response and that expectations regarding the play of other players are correct.
