Catherine wins a non-transferable, non-refudnable ticket to attend Saturday's baseball game. Taylor plans to attend the same game, but she knows from experience she can purchase a $40 ticket the day of the game. On the day of the game, it is cold with off-and-on rain showers, weather that both Catherine and Taylor equally dislike, making the prospect of attending the game less attractive than before. If both Catherine and Taylor have the same tastes and rational:  a. Is one of them more likely to attend the baseball game than the other? b. Instead of winning a ticket, assume that last week Catherine paid $40 for the non-trasnferable, non-refundable ticket to Saturday's game. Would this change whether or not one of them is more likely to attend the baseball game?
You have two options for how to spend the afternoon. You can either go see a movie with your roommate or work as a tutor for the Math Department. From experience, you know that going to see a movie gives you $20 worth of enjoyment, and with your student discount, a movie ticket only costs $12. If you spend the afternoon working as a math tutor, you will get paid $45. On a typical day, you wouldn't be willing to spend the afternoon working as a math tutor for less than $35. What is your opportunity cost of seeing a movie this afternoon? Select one: O a. $57 O b. $12 ○ c. $22 ○ d. $8
Ana and Ivan each individually and simultaneously decide whether to spend the evening at a play or a concert. Ana prefers to attend the concert twice as much without Ivan than to attend the play without him, and she prefers this three times more than being in the same place with Ivan (and at that point, she doesn't care where they are). Ivan prefers being in the same place with Ana twice as much as being at the play without her, and he prefers this four times more than being without Ana at the concert. Both have von Neumann-Morgenstern (vNM) preferences. With what probability will Ivan choose to attend the concert in Nashe's equilibrium?
