Problem 7

Construct a payoff matrix for the following scenario: Two firms, A and B, can either set a high price or a low price. If both set a high price, they earn \$10 million each. If both set a low price, they earn \$5 million each. If one sets a high price and the other sets a low price, the firm with the low price earns \$15 million, and the firm with the high price earns \$2 million. What is the dominant strategy for each firm?
