snow_tiger [21]

When making competitive priority decisions the firm <u>"must make trade-off decisions".</u>

"what is the difference between a credit card and a debit card? why are credit cards considerably more popular with u.s. consume
Y_Kistochka [10]
The difference between credit card and a debit card is that:
Debit cards are linked to your bank account, and money is withdrawn from the account as soon as the transaction occurs. While credit cards are not linked to your bank account, they are linked to the bank or institution that issued the card. Credit card are billed monthly.
Credit cards are considerably more popular with U.S. consumers because debit cards are linked to your bank account and if someone stole the card, all the money in your bank account will vanish. where credit cards are not linked to your bank account, it is charged monthly as much money as you want.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

don't launch

Explanation:

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 payoff matrix for this question is

                                     Launch (in millions)               Don't Launch  (in millions)  

Launch (in millions)                  $40, $40                      $30, $45

Don't Launch (in millions)         $45, $30                      $50, $50

It can be seen that the best strategy for each firm is not to launch because the payoffs of not launching ($45, $50) is greater than the payoff  of launching ($40, $30)
