Sometimes oligopolies in the same industry are very different in size. Suppose we have a duopoly where one firm (Film A) is large and the other film (Film B) is small, as the prisoners dilemma box in Table 10.4 shows. Assuming that both films know the payoffs, what is the likely outcome in this case?
Synergy and Dynaco are the only two firms in a specific high-tech industry. They facethe following payoff matrix as they decide upon the size of their research budget:a. Does Synergy have a dominant strategy? Explain.b. Does Dynaco have a dominant strategy? Explain.c. Is there a Nash equilibrium for this scenario? Explain. (Hint: Look closely at thedefinition of Nash equilibrium.)
Consider a situation where two firms, 1 and 2, compete by choosing prices simultaneously. Theycan either compete (charge a low price) or cooperate (collude, charging a high price). The firmsplay this competition game repeatedly and indefinitely, using a grim trigger strategy toincentivize cooperation. They use the same interest rate, i, to discount future payoffs. Payoffsare $4,050 when both firms cooperate and $3,600 when they compete. If one firm charge a lowprice while the other charges a high price, the firm charging the low price gets $7,200, and theother gets zero, but now assume there is a 10% chance that aregulatory agency will give both firms a $1,500 fine in each period if they are caught colluding.Find the condition on the interest rate, i , necessary for sustaining the cooperative equilibrium.Which of the following statements is correct?(a) For any i < 1/7 the firms will cooperate.(b) For any i < 1/11 the firms will cooperate.(c) For any i > 1/11 the firms will…
Two farmers, Ali and Hasan, graze their animals on a common land. They canchoose to use the common resource lightly or heavily and the resulting strategic interactionmay be described as a strategic form game.

Little Kona is a small coffee company that is considering entering a market dominated by Big Brew. Each company’s profit depends on whether Little Kona enters and whether Big Brew sets a high price or a low price:a. Does either player in this game have a dominant strategy?b. Does your answer to part (a) help you figure out what the other player should do?c. What is the Nash equilibrium? Is there only one?d. Big Brew threatens Little Kona by saying, “If you enter, we’re going to set a low price, so you had better stay out.” Do you think Little Kona should believe the threat? Why or why not?c. If the two firms could collude and agree on how to split the total profits, what outcome would they pick?
Two firms with differentiated products are competing in price. Firm A and B face thefollowing demand curves: Q_A = 70 − 2P_A + P_B and Q_B = 120 − 2P_B + P_Arespectively. Assume production is costless.a. Give equations for and graph each firm’s reaction curve.b. If both firms set their prices at the same time, what is the Nash equilibriumprice, quantity, and profit for each firm?c. Suppose A sets its price first and then B responds. What price and quantitydoes each firm set now? Is it advantageous to move first?d. Compare the profits from part b and c. Which firm benefits more from thesequential price choosing?

Three retail chains are each deciding whether to locate a store in town A or town B.

How do I determine values for Y that have dominant strategy? What is the Nash equilibirum? If the Market demand for two companies is P=120-Q and marginal cost is 20. How will the payoff matrix with strategies for each that show cournot equilibirum quantity/half of the monopoly quantity look? How do i solve for the nash equilibrium?
