The second triplet is Player 2's probability allocations to Y1, Y2, Y3. Which of the following is true? O a. For Player 2, Y1 is strictly dominated by Y2 Ob. ((p1.p2.p3).(q1.q2.q3)- (2/5.2/5,1/5),(3/5.1/5,1/5) is a mixed NE O. No action is strictly dominated by any mixed strategy O d. (pl.p2.p3).(qt.42.93)- (1/4.2/4,1/4,(3/4,0,1/4) is a mixed NE

True/False a. Consider a strategic game, in which player i has two actions, a and b. Let s−i be some strategy profile of her opponents. If a IS a best response to s−i, then b is NOT a best response to s−i. b. Consider the same game in (a). If a IS NOT a best response to s−i, then a does NOT weakly dominates b. c. Consider the same game in (a). If a mixed strategy of i that assigns probabilities 13 and 23 to a and b, respectively, IS a best response to s−i, SO IS a mixed strategy that assigns probabilities 32 and 13 to a and b, respectively. d. Consider the same game in (a). If a mixed strategy of i that assigns probabilities 13 and 23 to a and b, respectively, is NOT a best response to some strategy profile of her opponents, s−i, NEITHER is a mixed strategy that assigns probabilities 32 and 13 to a and b, respectively. e. Consider the same game in (a). If a IS a best response to s−i, SO IS any mixed strategy that assigns positive probability to a. f. Consider the same game in (a). If a…
2. Kier, in The scenario, wants to determine how each of the 3 companies will decide on possible new investments. He was able to determine the new investment pay off for each of the three choices as well as the probability of the two types of market. If a company will launch product 1, it will gain 50,000 if the market is successful and lose 50,000 if the market is a failure. If a company will launch product 2, it will gain 25,000 if the market is successful and lose 25,000 if the market will fail. If a company decides not to launch any of the product, it will not be affected whether the market will succeed or fail. There is a 56% probability that the market will succeed and 44% probability that the market will fail. What will be the companies decision based on EMV? What is the decision of each company based on expected utility value?
Halsen, a marketing manager at Business X, has determined four possible strategies (X1, X2, X3, and X4) for promoting the Product X in London. She also knows that major competitor Product Y has 4 competitive actions (Y1, Y2, Y3 and Y4) it’s using to promote its product in London, too. Ms. Halsen has no previous knowledge that would allow her to determine probabilities of success of any of the four strategies. She formulates the matrix below to show the various Business X strategies and the resulting profit, depending on the competitive action used by Business Y. Determine which strategy Ms. Halsen should select using. Maximax, maximin or minimax regret?

Brown’s TV Production is considering producing a pilot for a comedy series for a major network. While the network may reject the pilot and series, it may also purchase the program for 1 or 2 years. Brown may produce the pilot or transfer the rights for the series to a competitor for $100,000. Brown’s profits are summarized in the following payoff table (profits in thousands). sate of nature reject 1 year 2 years produce pilot -100 50 150 sell to competitor 100 100 100 If the probability estimates for the states of nature are, P(reject)=0.20, P(1 year)=0.30, and P(2 years)=0.5, what is the maximum Brown should be willing to pay for inside information on what the network will do?
