- Indicate the four types of pricecompetitive levels.The Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission use the HI calculation for a market to evaluate proposed horizontal mergers. For example, if the post-merger HHI is below ——- , then the market is not concentrated, so mergers in them are not challenged; however, at the other extreme, if the post-merger HHI is above ——- then the market is highly concentrated, and mergers that increase the HHI by 100 to 200 points may be challenged and mergers that increase the HHI by more than 200 points will likely be challenged. (Enter your responses as integers.)When players in a game collude, they: A. make agreements not to compete with each other and, typically, to charge high prices. B. change their products, so that they are in different markets and not competing with each other. C. choose to avoid any outcomes that harm their rival. D. act independently to try to eliminate other players from the game.
- One method of solving this problem is through signaling. Signaling is a strategy one uses when they have information. The goal is to use a signal to convince the buyer that the good or service that is being sold is quality and will meet the buyer's wants. Offer an example of a company that uses a signal to help sell its product. What is the signal? What information is the signal trying to convey? Do you think the signal is effective? Why or why not? Does this signal improve market efficiency? Why or why not?How have conmunications changed over the past 30 years? For the better or worse?In this version of the ultimatum game experiment, one participant is given £100, and is told to offer to split that amount with another participant. The second player can either refuse to accept the division, in which case the participant receiving the £100 has to give it back, or can accept the division, in which case, the player receiving the money splits the £100 as proposed. For the participant who has to accept or reject the offer A) The best strategy is to accept any offer which meets the social norm for fairness. B) The best strategy is to threaten to turn down any transfer of less than £100 to ensure that the person receiving the money makes a fair offer. C) There is a dominant strategy to accept any offer because gaining some money is better than gaining no money D) There is a dominant strategy to turn down any offer other than £50 because an unequal split would be unfair.
