A self-interested Proposer must offer a portion of $100 to a Responder. The Proposer's goal is to keep as much money as possible, but they get nothing if the Responder rejects the offer. Match the Proposer's belief about the Responder to the Proposer's most logical offer.

During a severe traffic jam, a toll bridge that charges a fee for passage continues to be classified as a non-rival good because the toll mechanism is still in place.
A Proposer is given $100 to split with a Responder. The Proposer, who wants to maximize their own earnings, knows from experience that this particular Responder values fairness and is very likely to reject any offer that gives them less than 30% of the total sum. Based on this information, what is the Proposer's optimal offer to the Responder?

Comparing Proposer Strategies Under Different Assumptions
A self-interested Proposer is tasked with splitting $100 with a Responder. The Proposer believes the Responder values fairness and will reject offers they perceive as 'unfair,' but the Proposer is uncertain about the Responder's exact minimum acceptable amount. The Proposer decides to offer the Responder a 50/50 split ($50). From the perspective of maximizing the Proposer's own payoff, which statement best evaluates this decision?
A purely self-interested Proposer, when splitting a sum of money with a Responder they believe values fairness, makes a non-zero offer solely out of a sense of altruism or a desire to be fair themselves.
A purely self-interested individual (the 'Proposer') must offer a portion of a sum of money to another person (the 'Responder'). The Proposer believes the Responder cares about fairness and will reject an offer that is too low, in which case neither person gets anything. Arrange the following steps into the most logical sequence representing the Proposer's thought process for maximizing their own gain.

A purely self-interested individual (the 'Proposer') must offer a portion of $100 to another person (the 'Responder'). The Proposer's goal is to keep as much money as possible. The Proposer is certain that the Responder values fairness and will reject any offer below $30, but will accept any offer of $30 or more. If the Proposer offers the Responder $50, which statement best analyzes this action from a purely strategic, self-interested perspective?
