Answer: 1. A.Both firms will choose the low price.
2. B. Both firms would choose the high price.
Explanation:
1. If the firms cannot cooperate with each other and must choose simultaneously, both firms will choose the low price.
This is because at the low price both of them are at the highest profit they can make when they are not cooperating. For instance, if Firm B chooses Low Price and Firm A chooses High Price, Firm A will make $3 million while Firm be will make $8 million.
If Firm B decides to have a high price then firm A will take the low price and make $8 million in profit while Firm B makes $4 million. If they are not working together, they will both have to take the low price to make the most profit.
2. If the firms could cooperate with each other, both firms would choose the high price.
The is because they will be making more than competing and getting a lower profit. Should they cooperate they will each get $7 million in profit because they will pick the option they can both make the highest profit at. The is better than competing and making only $5 and $6 million respectively.

1.35
Explanation:
Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
