Question

Consider the pay-off matrix of a game given below:

Player 1

Player 2

 

I

O

A

1,1

3,3

N

2,4

4,2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(a) Find all the Nash equilibrium of this game. Which player(s), if any, would have a dominant strategy?

(b) Suppose that player 1 moves first by choosing either A or N. Players 2 observe player 1’s action and then choose I or, O. For every action combination, the player’s pay-offs are the same as in the above pay-off matrix. Draw a tree of this new game. How many strategies does player 1 have and what are they? Find all the sub-game perfect equilibria of this game.

The only Nash equilibrium is (N, I ). Player 1 has a dominant strategy, player 2 does not.

Now suppose that Player 1 moves first by choosing either A or N . Player 2 observes player 1’s action and then chooses I or O. For every action combination, the players’ payoffs are the same as in the above payoff matrix. Draw a

tree of this new game. How many strategies does player 1 have and what are they?

How many strategies does player 2 have and what are they? Find all the subgame perfect equilibria of this game.

S1 = {A, N }

S2 = {II, IO, OI, OO}
