Effort costs a worker e > 0 and shirking costs them nothing. If two workers do action E a lot of output is produced and the workers earn £3 each. If only one worker chooses action E less output is produced and they both earn £1. The workers earn nothing if they both shirk. (i) Describe this situation as a strategic form game (assuming the workers do not observe each other's effort choice when making their own decision). (ii) For what values of e does this game have strictly dominant strategies? (iii) Describe the Nash equilibria of this game for e = 0,1, 2, 3. (iv) The workers now are re-arranged into a production line. First worker 1 moves and then worker 2 moves. Worker 2 can now see worker l's effort level before they choose their effort. Draw this extensive form game. (v) Find the subgame perfect equilibria of the production-line game for c = 1/2 and c = 3/2.8) Find the mixed strategy Nash equilibrium of the following normal form game.

- A game involves two players: player A and player B. Player A has three strategies a1, a2 and a3 while player B has three strategies b1, b2 and b3.

What is the secure strategy of each player. What is the Nash equilibrium of the game?(d) Consider a simultaneous-move game between two firms choosing to sell their product at either £6, £7 or £8. The actions and payoffs are given in the matrix below. Firm 2's Prices £6 £7 £8 Firm 1's prices £6 4, 5 3, 5 2, 1 £7 0,4 2, 1 3,0 £8 -1, 1 4, 3 0, 2 What are the Nash equilibria of this game? Game theory is often used by firms competing under an oligopoly as a means of determining their best strategy. Why is game theory a useful tool and which characteristics of an oligopoly make it particularly useful for firms competing in this market structure? One outcome of an oligopoly is that firms may have an incentive to collude. Explain some of the conditions that make collusion more likely to occur and how game theory can explain why collusive agreements often break down.asap
- Consider a game in which there is $4 to be divided, and the first mover is only permitted to make one of three proposals: (a) $3 for the first mover and $1 for the second mover, (b) $2 for each, or (c) $1 for the first movier and $3 for the second mover. The second mover is shown the proposal and can either accept, in which case it is implemented, or reject and cause each to earn $0. Show this game in extensive (tree) form. Be sure to show the payoffs for each person, with the first mover listed on the left, for each of the six terminal nodes.Consider the Normal Form Game characterized in the following figure: P1 \ P2 b1 b2 b3 a1 (1,2) (0,1) (0,3) a2 (3,-1) (1,1) (-1,0) a3 (2,2) (1,-1) (3,0) a4 (-5,1) (-1,0) (-3,-2) a5 (-3,3) (3,0) (2,4) What is the set of actions of player 1?

(c) Compare the mixed-strategy equilibria in parts (a) and (b). Did this worsening in one of player 2's payoffs change player 2's equilibrium mixed strategy? Did it change player l's? Give some intuition.
