(b) Does either firm have a dominate strategy (a strategy that is always abest response)? Which? (c) Suppose Player 1 could move before Player 2 and Player 2 could observe Player 1’s move. What do you think would happen?4. Consider a two player game with Fred and Barney, who tal turns removing matchsticks from a pile. They start with 33 matchsticks, and Fred goes first. On each turn, ecach player may remove either one, two, three, four, or five matchsticks. The player to remove the last matchstick wins the game. What are the optimal strategies for each player? Who will win? b. Suppose now that they can remove up to six matchsticks, how will the optimal strategies change for- each player? a.Consider this as a simultaneous-move (static) game: Player A Top Bottom Player B Left Right ETEL UU 1.b) Does any player have a dominant strategy in this game?

- Normal Form Game: The table below provides a normal form, 2 x 2 game. The players are Column and Row. Column can choose either LEFT or RIGHT, and Row can choose either UP or DOWN. Their payoffs for each combination of moves are provided in the four boxes. Column Row UP DOWN The combination of moves (UP, LEFT) is a Nash-Equilibrium. A. False O B.

Player 1 has a dominant strategy. This game has a Nash equilibrium. This game has a Nash equilibrium in pure strategies. Player 1's best response is D if player 2 plays R.
- 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)?Solve for the Nash equilibrium (or equilibria) in each of the following games. (a) The following two-by-two game is a little harder to solve since firm 2’spreferred strategy depends of what firm 1 does. But firm 1 has a dominantstrategy so this game has one Nash equilibrium. Firm 2 Launch Don’tFirm 1 Launch 60, -10 100, 0 Don’t 80, 30 120, 0 What is the Nash equilibrium of this simultaneous-move game? (b) What would the outcome of this game be if instead firm 1 moved first and then, after seeing what firm 1 chose, firm 2 chose it strategy? In this case firm 1 doesn’t necessarily need to choose a best response, but firm 2 must choose a best response since it moves second.Question 1 Saue Answe Consider a 2-player game with strategy sets S1-(a,b}for player 1 and Sz =(c,d) for player 2. Which statement is true if player 1 has no dominant strategy? O Strategy b guaranteos playor 1 the best possible payaff, no matter what strategy player 2 choosos. O Depending on what strategy player 2 chooses, sometimes strategy a leads to a (weakly) higher payoff for player 1 than strategy b, and sometimes strategy b leads to a (weakiy) higher payoff for player 1 than strategy a. O We cannot say whether any of the other 3 alternatives is true. O Strategy a guarantees player 1 the best possible payoff, no matter whhat strategy player 2 chooses.
