Consider the following bargaining problem: Two siblings Naa and Nii have to have Gh20 million they inherited from their parents between them. Naa gets to make an initial offer. Nii then gets to respond by either accepting Naa's initial offer or offering a counter offer. Finally, Naa can respond by either accepting Nii's offer or making a final offer. If Nii does not accept Naa's final offer both Nii and Naa get nothing. Nii discounts the future at 10% (i.e., future earnings are with 10% less than current earnings) while Naa discounts the future at 20%. Calculate the Nash equilibrium of this bargaining problem.
