Consider two hotel chains, Hotel Max and Living Large, considering what size hotel to build in a new holiday location that has just been opened for development. In terms of timing, Hotel Max first chooses to build either a Big or Small hotel. Living Large observes its rival’s hotel size, then makes its choice. If both build a Big hotel, the payoffs are 3 to each. If they both opt for a Small facility, they each get a payoff of 6. If one chain builds Big and the other Small, the chain that built the Big hotel gets 10 and the chain with the Small hotel gets 5. Which hotel chain would you prefer to be?Group of answer choicesLiving LargeHotel MaxIt does not matter – their profits are the sameThere is not enough information to answer the question.

Dell and HP must both simultaneously prices for their new laptops. They can both either choose to set a Low or High price. The payoffs are as follows. If both firms set a Low price, Dell gets 5 and HP 6. If both firms set a High price, the payoffs are 7 to Dell and 8 to HP. If Dell sets a High price and HP chooses Low, the payoffs are 3 to Dell and 10 to HP. If Dell sets a Low price and HP opts for High, the payoffs are 9 to Dell and 1 to H. Which of the followings is true?Group of answer choicesDell and HP may be able to collude and charge High price in the equilibrium if the game is played five timesDell and HP may be able to collude and charge High price in the equilibrium if the game is played twice.Dell and HP always choose Low price in the equilibrium if this game is played twice.None of the statements are correct.Dell and HP will both charge a high price if the game is played once.

Consider two fashion companies, House of Kieron and Rohan Exclusive. Both firms can simultaneously choose to go up market (U) or choose a fashion line for the mass market (M). If both firms choose U, the payoffs are 40 to Kieron and 60 to Rohan. If Kieron opts for M and Rohan U, the payoffs are 30 to Kieron and 10 for Rohan. If Kieron plays U and Rohan M, the payoffs are (10, 20) for Kieron and Rohan, respectively. Finally, if Kieron plays M and Rohan plays M, the payoffs are (50, 40). What is the Nash equilibrium/equilibria?Group of answer choices(M, M) and (U, U)(M, M)(U, M) and (M, U)(U, M)(M, U) and (M, M)

Two restaurant proprietors, James and May, must simultaneously decide on the locations of their restaurants. The choices are on Pitt Street (P) or King Street (K). If both opt for P, the payoffs are (10, 20) to James and May, respectively. If both proprietors opt for K the payoffs are (10, 8). If James choose P and May chooses K, the payoffs are (5, 4). Finally, if James chooses K and May chooses P, the payoffs are (7, 3). The Nash equilibrium/equilibria is/are . This is a game
