In a duopoly game we observe the following payouts: if the two firms collude they will each earn $50,000. If one firm cheats then he earns $60,000 and the other firm earns -$10,000. If both firms cheat then they each earn zero economic profit. In this game what is the Nash equilibrium?

the Nash equilibrium for both players is to collude

Explanation:

A duopoly is when there are two firms operating in an industry.

Game theory looks at the interactions between participants in a competitive game and calculates the best choice for the player.

Dominant strategy is the best option for a player regardless of what the other player is playing.

Nash equilibrium is the best outcome for players where no player has an incentive to change their decisions.

 the Nash equilibrium for both players is to collude because it is the best outcome for both players. if, a player cheats, there is a chance that the other player would cheat and both firms would end up earning a zero economic profit

d. to get countries or companies to stop doing something objectionable.
