Economics Consider an infinitely repeated game played between two firms with the following payoffs (firm 1 is listed first): · (250, 290) if both firms deviate · (290, 330) if both firms cooperate · (230, 370) if only firm 2 deviates · (350, 270) if only firm 1 deviates a. What probability-adjusted discount factor would ensure that Firm 1 would cooperate in a Nash equilibrium if Firm 2 applied a trigger strategy in the event that Firm 1 deviated? b. What probability-adjusted discount factor would ensure that Firm 2 would cooperate in a Nash equilibrium if Firm 1 applied a trigger strategy in the event that Firm 2 deviated?
10) Consider a repeated game in which the following one-shot game between two players is repeated "infinitely." Denote by "d" the discount factor. (Assume both players have the same discount factor.) Player 2 Cooperate Defect Player 1 Cooperate 5, 4 0, 5 Defect 6, 0 1, 1 The two players try to support cooperation by using "grim trigger strategy" as discussed in class. Answer YES or NO to each of the following three questions. (a) Can they support cooperation if the common discount factor, d, is equal to 0.23? (b) Can they support cooperation if the common discount factor, d, is equal to 0.4? (c) Can they support cooperation if the common discount factor, d, is equal to 0.15?

14. Company A and Company B are each telecommunications manufacturers. Both companies manufacture the same products, and they make their decisions based on the other's actions. Both companies are considering opening retail outlets to increase their profits. The payoff matrix shows the profits of the companies in millions of dollars if they choose to open retail outlets. The government imposes a new $5 million tax to open retail outlets. What is the expected outcome of the new payoff matrix, given the tax? The Nash equilibrium is for Company A to not open retail outlets and for Company B to open retail outlets. The Nash equilibrium is for Company A to open retail outlets and for Company B to not open retail outlets. The Nash equilibrium is for both Company A and Company B to open retail outlets. The Nash equilibrium is for both Company A and Company B to not open retail outlets. There is no Nash equilibrium after the change given in the scenario.…

You are considering entering a market serviced by a monopolist. You currently earn £0 economic profits, while the monopolist earns £5. If you enter the market and the monopolist engages in a price war, you will lose £5 and the monopolist will earn £1. If the monopolist doesn't engage in a price war, you will each earn profits of £2. (a) Write out the extensive form of the above game? (b) Are there any Nash equilibria for the game? Explain. (c) Is there a subgame perfect equilibrium? Explain. (d) If you were the potential entrant, would you enter? Explain why or why not.
Q56 A Nash equilibrium is an outcome... a. Achieved by cooperation between players in the game. b. That is achieved by collusion where no party has an incentive to change their behaviour. c. Where each player's strategy depends on the behaviour of its opponents. d. That is achieved when players in the game have jointly maximized profits and divided those profits according to market share of each player. e. Where each player's best strategy is to maintain its present behaviour given the present behaviour of the other players.
Suppose that there are only two firms in a market in which demand is given by p = 64 - Q, where Q is the total production of the two firms. Each firm can choose either a low level of output, qL = 15, or a high level of output, qH = 20. The unit cost of production for both firms is $4. Write down the normal-form representation of the game in which the strategic variable for each firm is the quantity of output and the firms make their choices simultaneously. Find the pure strategy Nash equilibrium of this game (quantities produced and market price).
