7. solving for dominant strategies and the nash equilibrium
suppose larry and megan are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action left or right. the payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. for example, the lower-right cell shows that if larry chooses right and megan chooses right, larry will receive a payoff of 5 and megan will receive a payoff of 5.
the only dominant strategy in this game is for to choose .
the outcome reflecting the unique nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: larry chooses and megan chooses .

If a seller prepaid the taxes of $4,400 and the closing is set for may 19, using the 12 month/30 day method what will the buyer owe the seller as prorated taxes?

M. cotteleer electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. one of the components has an annual demand of 235 units, and this is constant throughout the year. carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering (setup) cost is $21 per order. a) to minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed? b) how many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy? c) what is the average inventory if costs are minimized? d) suppose that the ordering cost is not $21, and cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. for this order policy (of q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.

Jallouk corporation has two different bonds currently outstanding. bond m has a face value of $50,000 and matures in 20 years. the bond makes no payments for the first six years, then pays $2,100 every six months over the subsequent eight years, and finally pays $2,400 every six months over the last six years. bond n also has a face value of $50,000 and a maturity of 20 years; it makes no coupon payments over the life of the bond. the required return on both these bonds is 10 percent compounded semiannually. what is the current price of bond m and bond n?
