Q4. There are two firms A and B in a homogenous product industry. Inverse demand is P = 120 Q where Q is the combined output of the firms. Firm A has a marginal cost of 0 and firm B has a marginal cost of 10. There is an infinite sequence of periods in which firms simultaneously set prices. In this question we will consider whether the following collusive strategies with trigger strategy punish- ments are a subgame perfect Nash...

1. Consider the coupon game. But suppose that instead of
decisions being made simultaneously, they are made sequentially,
with Firm 1 choosing first, and its choice observed by Firm 2
before Firm 2 makes its choice.
a. Draw a game tree representing this game.
b. Use backward induction to find the solution. (Remember that
your solution should include both firms’ strategies, and that Firm
2’s strategy should be complete!)
2. Two duopolists produce a homogeneous product, and each has a...

Two profit-maximizing firms compete on prices. They must simultaneously select a price without the other firm knowing what that choice is. They can price at $9 per unit, $8 per unit or $7 per unit. Total demand for the product (Q = Q1+Q2) is given by Q = (10 – PL)*100, where PL is the lowest of the two prices posted. If they both post the same price they split the total demand evenly. If the lowest price is $1...
