In her first move, Rose has a choice of either 0 or 3. If she chooses 3, then Rose and Colin play G3 with Colin moving first. If Rose chooses 0 in her first move, then Colin can play either 1 or 2 in his first move. If he plays 1, then Rose and Colin play G₁ with Rose moving first, and if he plays 2, then Rose and Colin play G₂ with Rose moving first.

- Q2 Consider the following game. (a) Find all pure-strategy Nash equilibria. (b) Find all mixed-strategy Nash equilibria. 2, 4 6, 0 5,1 1,9 A В(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.Consider again the normal form of the Prisoner's dilemma game.
