Please find herewith a payoff matrix. In each cell you find the payoffs of the players associated with a particular strategy combination: The first entry is the payoff of player 1, the second entry is the payoff of player2. Player 2 t1 t2 t3 Player 1 S1 3, 4 1, 0 5, 3 S2 0, 12 8, 12 4, 20 S3 2, 0 2, 11 1, 0 Suppose both players select their strategies (S1, S2 or S3 for player 1 and t1, t2 or t3 for player 2) simultaneously and that the game is played once. In your explanation to the questions below, please do refer to the figures in the matrix. Suppose player 2 could move before player 1 (i.e. has a first mover advantage). In your explanation to the questions below, please do refer to the figures in the matrix. What strategy would (s)he select? Is it really an ‘advantage’ for player 2 to move first? Or does player 2 benefit from being the second mover (and hence player 1 moving first)? I.e. for this question, do not make a comparison to the outcome of the…
Consider the above extensive-form game. If player 1 chooses U, player 2 will choose____. If player 1 chooses D, player 2 will choose _____. Based on this, player 1 should choose to play ____.
Consider the game shown below. In this game, players 1 and 2 must move at the same time without knowledge of the other player’s move. Player 1’s choices are shown in the row headings (A, B, C, D), Player 2’s choices are shown in the column headings (E, F, G).

Consider a three-player game where the strategy of player i is ri ∈ [1,2]. Player 1’s payoff function is V1(r1, r2, r3) = 1 - r1 + 2r2 - 3r3, player 2’s payoff function is V2(r1, r2, r3) = 1 + r1 + 4r2 + 2r3, and player 3’s payoff function is V3(r1, r2, r3) = (3 - r1 - r2)r3. Find all Nash equilibria.

Consider a simultaneous move game with two players. Player 1 has three possible actions (A, B, or C) and Player 2 has two possible actions (D or E.) In the payoff matrix below, each cell contains the payoff for Player 1 followed by the payoff for Player 2. Identify any pure strategy Nash Equilibria in this game. If there are none, state this clearly.
Consider the following payoff matrix that is below : A. Does Player A have a dominant startegy? Explain why or why not b. Does player B have a dominant strategy? Explain why or why not. Player B Strategy 1 2 Player A Strategy 1 $2,000 \ $1,000 -$1,000 \ -$2,000 2 -$2,000 \ -$1,000 $1,000 \ $2,000
Consider the following two person game. Player 1 begins the game by choosing A or B. If Player 1 chooses A the game ends and Player 1 receives $100 and Player 2 receives $100. If Player 1 chooses B then Player 2 must choose C or D. If Player 2 chooses C then Player 1 receives $150 and Player 2 receives $250. If Player 2 chooses D then Player 1 receives $0 and Player 2 receives $400. Draw the complete game tree for this situation. Be sure to accurately label the tree and include the payoffs. Using backwards induction (look forward and reason backwards) determine the rational outcome to this game. Given how experimental subjects have behaved in the Ultimatum game, provide a behavioral explanation for why an “average” Player 1 and 2 might deviate from the rational prediction.
Consider the following game. There are two payers, Player 1 and Player 2. Player 1 chooses a row (10, 20, or 30), and Player 2 chooses a column (10/20/30). Payoffs are in the cells of the table, with those on the left going to Player 1 and those on the right going to player 2. Suppose that Player 1 chooses his strategy (10, 20 or 30), first, and subsequently, and after observing Player 1’s choice, Player 2 chooses his own strategy (of 10, 20 or 30). Which of the following statements is true regarding this modified game? I. It is a simultaneous move game, because the timing of moves is irrelevant in classifying games.II. It is a sequential move game, because Player 2 observes Player 1’s choice before he chooses his own strategy.III. This modification gives Player 1 a ‘first mover advantage’. A) I and IIB) II and IIIC) I and IIID) I onlyE) II only

Suppose that Kim and Nene are both in the public eye. They get offers to sell secrets of the other to tabloids. If both keep the secrets, they are both better off than if they get exposed. If only one is exposed, the other person is better off than if no one was exposed. Their payoffs from each option are given in the payoff matrix. Suppose that Nene and Kim play the game over four television seasons, where each season is a new game. Consider the scenarios. Remember, a tit‑for‑tat strategy is one where the person starts by cooperating and then plays whatever strategy the other firm played last. Over four seasons, how much will Nene make if she and Kim both play tit‑for‑tat? $ Over four seasons, how much does Nene make if she always exposes and Kim plays tit‑for‑tat? $ Over four seasons, how much will Nene make if she plays a tit‑for‑tat strategy and Kim always exposes? $ Over four seasons, how much will Nene make if she and…
