Question # 1 Revisit Given below are an assertion and a reason, Write option A if both assertion and reason are correct and reason statement explain the assertion statement, B if both assertion and reason statements are correct but reason does not explain the assertion, C if assertion statement is correct but reason statement is wrong D if assertion statement is wrong but reason statement is correct, and E if both assertion and reason statements are wrong Also give proper logic for your answer ustifying your choice. Please remember that partially correct logic or just repeating the assertion-reason statements in answer will not get any mark. Assertion: The iterated elimination of strictly dominated strategy requires only the assumption of rationality. Reason: A rational player will never play a strictly dominated strategy. Assertion: In the Cournot duopoly with equal marginal costs, if the total market demand increases, then equilibrium price will decrease. Reason: As demand increases, firms will produce more as a result of which prices will fall

Kayla and Kevin are friends who go together to a used textbook seller who has two copies ofthe biology book that they both need for their class this semester. The cost to the seller ofacquiring the books was $25 each and no other students will need this book. Kayla states thatshe is willing to pay $40 for the book, while Kevin says he is willing to pay $80. Which ofthe following describes the most likely conclusion to this scenario? Group of answer choices The seller will sell the books to both Kayla and Kevin for $40 each because if they tried tocharge Kevin a higher price, Kayla would engage in arbitrage. The seller will sell one book to Kayla for $40 and one book to Kevin for $80 because thismarket meets all three requirements for price discrimination. The seller will sell the books to both Kayla and Kevin for $80 each because Kevin's highervalue exceeds Kayla's willingness to pay. The seller will sell the books to both Kayla and Kevin for $25 each because that is howmuch the…

Q2. Preferences and utilityLet's assume that country A prefers not to make additional concessions (outcome C1) to country B than granting those concessions (outcome C2), but a continued war (outcome C3) would be worse than making the additional concessions (C2). The following utility function over the outcomes specifies the intensity of preferences for country A over the outcomes: u(C1) = 1, u(C2) = 0.3, and u(C3) = 0. Country A can choose to refuse concessions (action A1) or allow concessions (action A2). The outcome that will occur is a function of the "type" of country B's leader.If country A refuses concession (A1), country B will not initiate a war (outcome C1) if country B's leader is amicable, while it will enter a war (outcome C3) if the leader is belligerent. There is a probability p(S1) = 0.6 that country B's leader is amicable and a probability p(S2) = 0.4 that country he's belligerent. If country A allows concession (A2), both in case of country A is amicable p(S1) and…
You are considering going to a football game. However, the roads are cover in ice due to bad weather. Your ticket was a gift. You derive a value of z from attending the game, and a cost of D for driving on the icy roads. Your utility function is given by: ug(Z) + ui(D) = In(Z - 3) - In(2 - D). In your ultimate wisdom, you calculate that the cost of driving on the icy roads is 1 unit (So, D=1). What is the minimum value you must obtain from attending the game, so that you decide to go?

Studying has both costs and benefits. If you continue tostudy (e.g., for a test) for as long as the marginal benefitsof studying are greater than the marginal costs, and youstop studying when the two are equal, will your actionbe consistent with having maximized the net benefits ofstudying? Explain your answer.
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Consider a good or service where consumers pay more than its actual valuation (for eg, products with markup prices at retail significantly higher than their cost: greetings cards, bottled water, stock price, movie theatre popcorn/candy). Based on the irrational decision-making and marginal analysis, explain why such irrational decision-making could take place in this situation.
