Credibility of a Low-Wage Offer at Equilibrium
Consider an economy in a stable state where firms have set their wages at a level that maximizes their profits, given the prices they charge and the effort levels of their employees. If a single firm decides to unilaterally reduce the wages it pays its workers, what is the most likely immediate outcome for that specific firm, assuming all other economic conditions remain constant?

Two competing coffee shops, 'Bean Haven' and 'Daily Grind', are the only sellers in a small town. Each must decide whether to set a high price or a low price for their coffee. The daily profits for each shop depend on the combination of prices they choose, as shown in the table below (profits are listed as [Bean Haven, Daily Grind]):
Daily Grind: High Price Daily Grind: Low Price Bean Haven: High Price [$1000, $1000] [$400, $1200] Bean Haven: Low Price [$1200, $400] [$700, $700] Given this information, which outcome represents a stable state where neither shop has an incentive to change its pricing strategy on its own?
Farmers' Planting Dilemma
True or False: In a scenario where two competing firms are deciding whether to advertise, the outcome where both firms choose to advertise is always a Nash equilibrium, because if one firm were to stop advertising on its own, it would lose market share to the competitor who is still advertising.
