2. Consider a two-period model with two firms, A and B. In the first period, they simultaneously choose one of
two actions, Enter or Don't enter. Entry requires the expenditure of a fixed entry cost of 10. In the second
period, whichever firms enter play a pricing game as follows. If no fim enters, the pricing game is trivial and
profits are zero. If only o ters, it earns the monopoly profit of 30. If both firms cnter, they engage in
competition as in the Bertrand model with homogeneous products
申論題內容
(a) Using backward induction, fold the game back to the first period in which firms make their choice of Enter
or Don't enter, Write down the normal form (a 2 by 2 matrix) for this game. (6%)
