3) (20 points) Consider the following voting problem: There are four alternatives A,B,C,D and fivevoters with the following rankings:Voter 1Voter 2Voter 3Voter 4Voter 5ABCABBDBDDCAACCDCDBAThe order of voting is such that, first A competes against B, next the winner competes with C,and finally the survivor competes with D to determine the final winner. (At each step winner isdetermined by the majorly rule.) Voters 1 and 2 are strategic voters and voters 3,4, and 5 aresincere voters. Voter 1 and 2 mistakenly think that all voters are strategic voters. Find theoutcome of this voting game. Clearly indicate the vote of each voter in the first two rounds ofvotes.

The response effectively breaks down the given voting problem, providing a clear explanation of the…

HW (Ch 13) The following scenario examines the relationship between marginal and average values. Suppose Nalah is a high school basketball player. The following table presents their game-by-game results for foul shots. Fill in the columns with Nalah's foul-shooting percentage for each game and their overall foul-shooting average after each game. Game Foul-Shooting Percentage Average Foul-Shooting Percentage 80 Game 1 CENTAGE 2 345 -100 90 On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot Nalah's foul-shooting percentage for each game individually, and use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot Nalah's overall average foul-shooting percentage after each game. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. 80 70 Game Result 60 4/5 2/5 1/4 1/2 4/4 Total 4/5 6/10 7/14 8/16 12/20 43. 80 Game Foul-Shooting Percentage Average Foul-Shooting Percentage ?
(a) Assuming that each fishery chooses fi ∈ (0, F), to maximize its payoff function, derive the players’ best response functions and find a Nash equilibrium. (b) Is the equilibrium you found in (a) unique or not? What are equilibrium payoffs? 4 (c) Suppose that a benevolent social planner wants maximize the utility of both fisheries. In other words, the social planner solves the following problem: max w(f1,f2) w(f1, f2) = u1(f1, f2) + u2(f1, f2) =2 ln(f1) + 2 ln(f2) + 2 ln(F − f1 − f2). Find the social planner’s solution. (d) What are the fisheries’ payoffs if the quantities of fish they catch are solutions to the social planner’s problem? What can you say about the Nash equilibrium quantities of fish being caught as compared to the social planner’s solution? (e) If fishery j decides to follow the recommendation of the social planner, how much fish will firm i catch?

The Margan Co makes two products: tables and chairs, which must be processed through assembly and finishing department. Assembly department is available for 60 hours in every production period, while the finishing department is available for 48 hours of work. Manufacturing one table requires 4 hours in the assembly and 2 hours in the finishing. Each chair requires 2 hours in the assembly and 4 hours in the finishing. One table contributes Php180 to profit, while chair contributes Php100. The problem is to determine the number of tables and chairs to make per production period in order to maximize the profit.
