Suppose AMD is considering cloning Intel’s latest CPU chip. If AMD enters Intel’s market, Intel can play Mean, expand its output, drop prices, and try to make AMD’s profit as small as possible or play Nice by cutting back its output and sharing the market. AMD and Intel both know that after all moves are complete, the time-discounted profits of future chip production in billions of dollars are Assuming AMD moves first, which of the following is the Nash equilibrium outcome for sequential play?
Intel
Mean Nice
AMD Mean 5,3 7,6
Nice 0,12 0,22

While on vacation in las vegas jennifer, who is from utah, wins a progressive jackpot playing cards worth $15,875 at the casino royale. what implication does she encounter when she goes to collect her prize?

Suppose that two firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. as in class, the two firms are located at two ends of a line one mile apart. consumers are evenly distributed along the line. the firms have identical marginal cost, $60. firm b produces a product with value $110 to consumers.firm a (located at 0 on the unit line) produces a higher quality product with value $120 to consumers. the cost of travel are directly related to the distance a consumer travels to purchase a good. if a consumerhas to travel a mile to purchase a good, the incur a cost of $20. if they have to travel x fraction of a mile, they incur a cost of $20x. (a) write down the expressions for how much a consumer at location d would value the products sold by firms a and b, if they set prices p_{a} and p_{b} ? (b) based on your expressions in (a), how much will be demanded from each firm if prices p_{a} and p_{b} are set? (c) what are the nash equilibrium prices?
