Consider the following price game: Firm 1 Firm 2 High Low High 20, 20 12, 24 Low 24, 12 14, 14 Remark: In simultaneous move games (games with rows and columns) theconvention is to write the row player’s payoff first and the column player’spayoff second. (a) What is the Nash equilibrium of this game? Recall that for each playeryou should find the best response to each of the opponents’ strategies andunderline the associated payoff. Then look for a cell where both strategiesare best responses to each other. This is a Nash equilibrium. (b) Does either firm have a dominate strategy (a strategy that is always abest response)?
Mark and Bevis play a static game. Mark chooses x and Bevis chooses y. Mark's payoff is 16 - (x- y)2, and Bevis' payoff is 16 - (x-0.5)2 - (y-0.5)2. Then O a. both Mark and Bevis have dominant strategies O b. Mark has a dominant strategy, but Bevis does not O c. Bevis has a dominant strategy, but Mark does not O d. neither Mark or Bevis have dominant strategies

Use the following game table to answer the question: Player 2 Y 6, 3 1, 3 A 10, 5 0,0 Player 1 B 2,6 0,0 3,5 3, 4 3, 3 Is the Nash equilibrium of this game for Player 1 to choose A and Player 2 to choose X? Why or why not? O It is; if Player 2 chose B or C they would get less than 10, and if Player 1 chose Y or Z they would get less than 5. It is not; Player 2 could get 6, instead of 5, if they chose B. O It is; if Player 1 chose B or C they would get less than 10, and if Player 2 chose Y or Z they would get less than 5. It is; if Player 2 chose B or C they would get less than 5, and if Player 1 chose Y or Z they would get less than 10. It is not; Player 1 could get 6, instead of 5, if they chose B.

You are playing a game with a friend. It’s yourmove but you don’t have a dominant strategy.Your payoff depends on what your friend doesafter your move. You consider flipping a coin todecide what to do. You are about to reach for acoin, but then you realize that your friend has adominant strategy. Explain how using backwardinduction (rather than a coin toss) will now determine your next move

a. The president of a Japanese electronics company, Takashi Hashiyama, famously chose the auction housefor his company’s art collection by having representatives from two auction houses, Christie’s and Sotheby’s,play a round of rock-paper-scissors. At stake were millions of dollars in commissions. Show the payoff matrixfor a game where the payoff is 1 if you win, 0 if you tie, and -1 if you lose. I’m sure you know this already, butjust in case: rock breaks scissors, scissors cut paper, and paper smothers rock. Here’s an article about the actualgame if you’re interested. b. If you were in a high stakes game…
