Answer:

a. The optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0)

b. Yes, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because $\pi ^{Cheat}$ > $\pi ^{Cooperate}$ .

Explanation:

a. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year.

Note: See the attached excel file for the Representation of one shot normal for of the game played between "You" and "Your Rival" together with the payoffs.

From the attached excel file, the dominant strategy is for “You” and “Your Rival” to charge “Low Price” each. If the dominant strategy is played by “You” and “Your Rival”, the optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0).

b. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.

When we have a year-after-year competition between “You” and “Your Rival” but with a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander, the payoffs of the firm that continue to comply with the collusive strategy of charging “High Price” by each firm under the normal trigger strategy whereby “You” and “Your Rival” agree to charge high price as long as there is no past deviation by any of the firm, otherwise charge a low price is as follows:

$\pi ^{Cooperate}$ = $6 + $6(100% - 60%) + $6(100% - 60%)^2 + 6(100% - 60%)^2 …….

$\pi ^{Cooperate}$ = $6 / 6% = $10

Therefore, what the firm that cheats earn today is $11 million and it earns $0 forever. The implication of this is that $\pi ^{Cheat}$ = $11

Therefore, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because $\pi ^{Cheat}$ > $\pi ^{Cooperate}$ .

Explanation:

I'm not really sure what the schedule is supposed to look like (im not good at accounting) exactly but i whipped up something real quick in excel and if you have any questions ask

the depreciable cost is just cost-salvage (the amount that's going to be depreciated) so for us its 34000-2000 or 32,000

the depreciation expense is just the depreciable cost divided by the useful live (32,000/4)=8000

see my attempt at a depreciation schedule below

The deprecation rate per unit is the depreciable cost divided by the total units

32000/200000= .16

and you can see below my attempt at the units of production schedule
