Answer: 83%

Explanation:

The Labour Force Participation Rate is a measure that checks the activeness of a nation's workforce.

It is calculated by dividing the segment of the population that are either working or ACTIVELY seeking employment by the total number of working age people in the economy that are not in prison.

It is assumed that unemployed people are Actively seeking employment.

In the above scenario therefore, the active population are,

= (320 million employed + 12 million unemployed )/400 million

The rest of the population are either unavailable for work or not actively seeking employment.

= 332/400

= 0.83

= 83%

The labor force participation rate in this economy is 83%

Consider the following game in which two firms decide how much of a homogeneous good to produce. The annual profit payoffs for e
inessss [21]

Answer:

Consider the following explanation

Explanation:

Context

Game theory involves two players. They have more than one option to decide. Pay off from each options adopted by two players are available. They have to select a strategy which will maximize their own return. But for optimizing their decision, they have to consider the action of his rival.

In this problem, two players are firm A and firm B. They have two strategies low output and high output. The strategies of firm a are measured in rows and for firm B in columns. They have to select a strategy which will maximize their payy off. Each cell has two pay offs. First one is for Firm A and second one is for firm B.

1. Dominant strategy is a strategy which will always give higher payoffs in comparison with pay off of other strategies. Consider first strategy of firm 1. If it adopts strategy of low output, then firm 2 can also adopt either strategy of low output or high output. In that case pay off of firm 1 will be 300 or 200.

Alteratively if firm 1 adopts high output then pay offs are 200 or 75. 200 is earned if firm B also go for low productivity. It is 75 if firm B adopts high productivity.

Now compare two payoffs side by side. Note that firm A has higher pay off in low output [300,200] in comparison with the pay off of high output [200,75]. So whatever strategy firm B adopts, Firm A will always go for low production. So low production strategy of firm A dominates high production strategy.

Same result is not observed for firm B. Pay off from low production strategy of firm B is [ 250,75]. Pay off from high production strategy are [100,100]. Now compare the two. If Firm A go for low production, then firm B will select low production. It will give pay off 250. Similarly when firm A decides for high production, then firm will also decide for high production. It will maximize its pay off. Amount is 100. Thus no strategy dominates for firm B.
