The mayor of Green City is considering whether to institute a Covid vaccine mandate for public employees. The fire chief opposes vaccination, and has threatened to resign if a mandate is instituted.  The mayor believes that instituting a mandate is critical to getting Covid under control, and thus not instituting the mandate would costs the city -50 utility.  However, the fire chief is critical to maintaining public safety.  If the fire chief resigns, it would cost the city 75 utility.  The fire chief believes a mandate would be an invasion of his personal freedom, costing him 20 utility.  The mandate only impacts the fire chief if he does not resign.  However, resigning his job as fire chief would cost him 40 utility.  Draw this game.  Identify how many subgames it contains.  Then, solve the game to find all subgame perfect Nash equilibria.
A risk-neutral manager is attempting to hire a worker. All workers in the market are of identical quality but differ with respect to the wage at which they are willing to work. Suppose half of the workers in the labor market are willing to work for a salary of $40,000 and half will accept a salary of $38,000. The manager spends three hours interviewing a given worker and values this time at $300. The first worker the manager interviews says he will work only if paid $40,000. Should the firm manager make him an offer or interview another worker?
