The Kinked Demand Curve

Assume we start out at P1 and Q1:

Will a firm benefit from raising price above P1?

Will it benefit from cutting price below P1?

Raising price above P1

Demand is relatively elastic

Firm loses market share and some total revenue

Reducing price below P1

Demand is relatively inelastic

Little gain in market share – other firms have followed suit

Total revenue may still fall

Introduction to Game Theory

Two prisoners are held in a separate room and cannot communicateThey are both suspected of a crimeThey can either confess or they can deny the crimePayoffs shown in the matrix are years in prison from their chosen course of actionDecisions made under uncertainty

Prisoner A

Confess Deny

Prisoner B

Confess (3 years, 3 years)

(1 year, 10 years)

Deny (10 years, 1 year)

(2 years, 2 years)

Introduction to Game Theory (2)

The equilibrium in the Prisoners’ Dilemma occurs when each player takes the best possible action for themselves given the action of the other playerThe dominant strategy is each prisoners’ unique best strategy regardless of the other players’ action

Best strategy? Confess?A bad outcome – prisoners could do better by both denying – but once collusion sets in, each prisoner has an incentive to cheat!

Prisoner A

Confess Deny

Prisoner B

Confess (3 years, 3 years) (1 year, 10 years)

Deny (10 years, 1 year) (2 years, 2 years)
