- Consider the following statement: “I examined the statistics for our basketball team’s wins last year and found that, when the third team played more, the winning margin increased. If the coach played the third team more, we would win by a bigger margin.” Which of the following applies to this statement? This statement exemplifies the post hoc ergo propter hoc (“after this, therefore because of this”) fallacy, whereby association is confused with causation. This statement is correct because third teams always win by larger margins in basketball games. This statement is correct. If the coach had played the third team more often, the winning margin would have increased. The statement is logical and exhibits no fallacy.arrow_forwardIn a standard economic model, we generally assume the individual only cares about their own payoff. So, for example, utility of individual i is given by u = pi, where pi is the individual’s payoff. Suppose the individual is playing a dictator game with another partner j.

- The Dictator of Abydos is worried that the population might protest or rebel, as neighboring countries have recently undergone revolution. The population is similarly inspired to consider rebellion. The Dictator must decide whether to go ahead and repress, do nothing, or step down peacefully. The population has three options: do nothing, engage in mass protest, or violently revolt. These choices must be made simultaneously, without observing what the other player chose. The dictator will lose power if they step down peacefully or the population revolts. However, repression would successfully overpower a revolt, allowing the dictator to retain power. The dictator values their position at 50 utility, which they would lose if they lose power. They would also lose an additional 100 utility if they are ousted in a revolt, as they would imprisoned. The population would gain 50 utility if the dictator steps down and 30 utility if the dictator is ousted in a revolt. Repression would cost each…arrow_forwardWho detected the endowment effect first?

Remember that in the equilibrium prediction of an ultimatum game, the Proposer will offer the smallest non-zero amount of money possible. First-year Commerce students were asked to play an Ultimatum game where a choice had to be made over the division of R100. Offers could only be made in R10 increments, and the results of the various offers made are reported in the table below. Amount offered by Proposer RO R10 R20 R30 R40 R50 Proportion rejected 100% 60% 50% 30% 10% 0% What is the equilibrium split of the R100 between the Proposer and the Responder? O A.

- Your firm must decide whether or not to introduce a new product. If you introduce the new product, your rival will have to decide whether or not to clone the new product. If you don’t introduce the new product, you and your rival will earn $1 million each. If you introduce the new product and your rival clones it, you will lose $5 million and your rival will earn $20 million (you have spent a lot on research and development, and your rival doesn’t have to make this investment to compete with its clone). If you introduce the new product and your rival does not clone, you will make $100 million and your rival will make $0. 1. Set up the extensive form of this game. 2. Should you introduce the new product? 3. How would your answer change if your rival has “promised” not to clone your product? 4. What would you do if patent law prevented your rival from cloning your product?arrow_forwardQuestion- In Parkland County there are three residents: ANDREW, BETH, CATHY. They exercise different amounts and have different marginal benefits for any given size of public park. The marginal benefits for each person are: MBA (A) =6-A/4; MBB (A) =14-A; MBC (A)=15-3A, where subscripts denote each person. The marginal cost of A acres of park is 18. Suppose the county government informs the voters that for each unit of A, each person will pay a tax of $6. What would be each person's preferred size of A? What would be the size of A that would result from voting? Suppose that the government of Parkland decides that it wants to provide the efficient size of park. Further suppose that the government decides it is now willing to charge different people a different tax to meet this goal. What would be the size of A ? How much will the government charge each person?arrow_forwardLittle Chicken farm (LCF) discovered that a common Asian plant has leaves that have antibiotic functions in fowls and are particularly effective in preventing some infections in ducks. To prevent such infections, duck farms have been adding antibiotics to duck feeds for ten consecutive days when the ducks are young. LCF’s research shows that by feeding a duck one pack of softgels of processed shredded leaves of the plants, ducks will not get infections even without using any antibiotics in feeds. The current antibiotic supplements used in duck feeds create severe side effects that kill 10% of the ducks. With this innovative LCF herbal solution, the mortality rate of ducks is reduced to 2%. It costs a duck farm $2 to buy and replace a dead duckling. Each surviving duck will lay an average of 30 dozen Problem Set #2 Due September 28 eggs in its lifetime on the farm; each dozen eggs sell at $0.80 per dozen on the wholesale market.

There are two firms in the market. Firm 1 is the leader and firm 2 is the follower. Firms can decide to produce low or high. The extensive-form representation below presents the profits depending on production decisions of firms. The first value is profit of firm 1 and second value is profit of firm 2 depending on their production decisions. Solve using backward-induction. What are the optimal production levels of both firms?
