Answer Happy

Two publishers, TCL and KPB, are contemplating releasing their books for sales now or later. If both release their books now, both publishers can earn $3 million. If both release their books later, both publishers can earn $2 million. If one publisher releases now and the other publisher releases later, the publisher that release now will earn $4 million and the publisher that releases later will earn $1 million. (a) If both publishers choose their releasing date simultaneously, construct and describe a payoff matrix in profit and solve for the Nash Equilibrium. (b) If TCL can decide on the releasing date first, construct the decision tree model and determines the payoffs to TCL and KPB
