- Economics Consider two firms that are choosing the price of competing products. The choices are contained in the payoff table. Each firm can raise price, lower price, or maintain their price. Suppose the game is played once each period forever. If both players play the strategy "always lower price" is this a Nash equilibrium? Let b = discount rate, 0 < b <1. Raise price Maintain price Lower price Firm B Raise price Maintain price Lower price 6. 4 8. 8 1.1 5, 5 4, 6 7.2 1.1 3.3 Firm A 2.7 No. because it is dominated by raising the price. No, because it is dominated by both firms raising the price. No, because it is dominated by maintaining the price.

Their stands are next to each other on a street and consumers regard them as identical. The marginal cost of an orange juice is $1.

If they set prices simultaneously (prices can be any real number), what is the Nash equilibrium price? b. If, against what we have assumed in class, orange juice salespersons have to charge prices in whole dollars ($1, $2, $3, etc), what are the Nash equilibrium prices? c.
