Suppose that there are two ice cream vendors on a beach which isrepresented by the 0-1 interval. Customers are uniformly distributedalong that interval. The vendors simultaneously select a position. Cus-tomers go to the closest vendor and split themselves evenly if the ven-dors choose an identical position. Each vendors want to maximize itsnumber of customers. Which location should the vendors choose in the0-1 interval, why?

However, due to the nature of the product there are precedence rules that must be observed. Such that Task A does not need any predecessors: task B requires task A to be completed.

- Player Rhas a $2, a $5, and a $10 bill. Player Chas a $1, a $5, and a $10 bill. Each player selects and shows (simultaneously) one of his or her three bills. If the total value of the two bills shown is even, Rwins Cs bill; if the value is odd, Cwins Rs bill. (Which player would you rather be?) (A) Set up the payoff matrix for the game. (B) Solve the game using the simplex method discussed in this section. (Remove any recessive rows and columns, if present, before you start the simplex method.)You and a coworker are assigned a team project on which your likelihood or a promotion will be decidedon. It is now the night before the project is due and neither has yet to start it. You both want toreceive a promotion next year, but you both also want to go to your company’s holiday party that night.Each of you wants to maximize his or her own happiness (likelihood of a promotion and mingling withyour colleagues “on the company’s dime”). If you both work, you deliver an outstanding presentation.If you both go to the party, your presentation is mediocre. If one parties and the other works, yourpresentation is above average. Partying increases happiness by 25 units. Working on the project addszero units to happiness. Happiness is also affected by your chance of a promotion, which is depends on howgood your project is. An outstanding presentation gives 40 units of happiness to each of you; an aboveaverage presentation gives 30 units of happiness; a mediocre presentation gives 10 units…The injured football player Bad news everyone!

- you and a friend decide to run a three mile race. If you agree to run together, you keep up with himfor the first mile, but you overexert yourself and run the last two miles at slower paces on your own. Tomake up for lost time, your friend runs the last two miles at a faster pace. Your mile times are 6:30, 7:00,and 7:30. Your friend’s times are 6:30, 6:00, and 6:00. If you both agree to run on your own, you run aconstant pace of 7:05 while your friend runs at a constant pace of 6:05. If you want to run together butyour friend wants to run solo, he runs his constant pace of 6:05. You, on the other hand, want to showhim that you can run faster, but you end up overexerting yourself after the first mile. You run times of6:20, 7:05, and 7:30. If he wants to run together but you do not, you both run at your pace of 7:05. Thissituation can be turned into an economic game, with the payoffs the overall race times. You each wantto run the fastest time you possibly can.(a) Who are the players in…There are 2 players. They take Ston eS From the Pilt of 6 Stones.

If he targets West, with 80% chance he shoots on target. If he shoots East, he is accurate with 75%. The goalkeeper has to choose the corner to jump to. If he does not guess the corner correctly and the shot is on target, then the striker scores. If the striker shoots West, the shot is on target and the goalkeeperjumps West, then with 75% chance he saves the goal. If the striker shoots East, the shot is on target and the goalkeeper jumps East, then with chance of 2/3 he saves the goal. Suppose, that it is a zero-sum game and if the striker scores his payoff is 1, otherwise it is 0.1. Formulate this situation as a strategic game and Find all Nash equilibria of the game.
- Please no written by hand and no emage Two classmates A and B are assigned a group project. Each student can choose to Shirk or Work. If one or more students chooses Work, the project is completed and provides each with credit valued at 4 payoff units each. The cost of completing the project is that 6 total units of effort (measured in payoff units) is divided equally among all players who choose to Work and this is subtracted from their payoff. If both Shirk, they do not have to expend any effort but the project is not completed, giving each a payoff of 0. The instructor can only tell whether the project is completed and cannot determine which students contributed to the project. A. Write down (draw) the normal form game, with payoff in the format of (player A payoff, player B payoff). Note that we assume students choose to Shirk or Work simultaneously. B. Does either player have a dominant strategy? C. Find the Nash equilibrium or equilibria. D. Explain ‘Prisoners’ dilemma’ using the…Many decision problems have the following simplestructure. A decision maker has two possible decisions, 1 and 2. If decision 1 is made, a sure cost of c isincurred. If decision 2 is made, there are two possibleoutcomes, with costs c1 and c2 and probabilities p and1 2 p. We assume that c1 , c , c2. The idea is thatdecision 1, the riskless decision, has a moderate cost,whereas decision 2, the risky decision, has a low costc1 or a high cost c2.a. Calculate the expected cost from the riskydecision.b. List as many scenarios as you can think of thathave this structure. (Here’s an example to get youstarted. Think of insurance, where you pay a surepremium to avoid a large possible loss.) For eachof these scenarios, indicate whether you wouldbase your decision on EMV or on expected utilitySuppose that the University of Alabama and Clemson are making spending decisions for theupcoming year. Assume that Alabama is currently spending $15 million on their recruiting andfacilities, and Clemson is spending $10 million. Each team has an additional $5 million to spendor keep as profits. If they both choose to not spend the additional $5 million then Alabama hasa 60% chance of getting the highest quality quarterback recruit to commit to them (getting thecommitment of the player is the goal). However, if they both choose to spend the additional $5million then there is a 57% chance that Alabama gets the high quality quarterback to commit. IfAlabama spends the additional $5 million but Clemson doesn’t then there is a 67% chanceAlabama gets the recruit. However, if Alabama does NOT spend the additional $5million butClemson does then there is a 50% change either team gets the recruit’s commitment.
