Question
Consider the following statements about the concept of subgame perfect Nash equilibrium (SPNE): (I) This concept only applies to finite games, not infinitely repeated games.

- Identify a real-world situation in which you see game theory/strategic behavior in action. Explain the game: Who are the players ? What are the strategies they have at their disposal? How are payoffs determined? What, if any, is the Nash equilibrium?
