Simplified Ultimatum Game with Two Offers
In a simplified version of the ultimatum game, the Proposer is limited to two distinct choices, such as a 'fair offer' of $50 or an 'unfair offer' of $20. While a payoff matrix could display the outcomes of this game, a game tree is a more suitable representation because it effectively captures both the sequential order of decisions and the final payoffs for each path of actions.

In a one-shot ultimatum game involving a $100 prize, which of the following scenarios presents the biggest challenge to the assumption that individuals act purely out of self-interest to maximize their own financial gain?
Analyzing a Seemingly Irrational Economic Decision
A two-person game is structured as follows: Player 1 (the Proposer) is given a sum of money and must offer a portion of it to Player 2 (the Responder). The Responder can then either accept the offer, in which case the money is split as proposed, or reject it, in which case both players receive nothing. Arrange the following events of a single round of this game in the correct chronological order.
According to a model where individuals are assumed to be perfectly rational and motivated solely by self-interest, a Responder in the ultimatum game should reject any offer they perceive as unfair, even if it is greater than zero.

Responder's Strategic Decision in the Ultimatum Game
In a strategic interaction, a 'Proposer' is given $100 and must make a take-it-or-leave-it offer to a 'Responder'. The Proposer is limited to two possible offers: a '$50 offer' or a '$20 offer'. The Responder can either accept the offer, in which case the money is split as proposed, or reject it, in which case both players receive $0. Match each sequence of actions to its final monetary outcome.
In a one-time interaction, a 'Proposer' is given $100 and must decide between two offers to make to a 'Responder': a '$50 offer' or a '$20 offer'. The Responder can either accept the offer, splitting the money as proposed, or reject it, in which case both individuals receive $0. From the Proposer's perspective, what is the fundamental trade-off when deciding between the two offers?
Analyzing Player Interdependence
In a one-shot interaction, a Proposer is endowed with $100 and can make one of two take-it-or-leave-it offers to a Responder: a 'fair offer' of $50 or an 'unfair offer' of $20. The Responder can then either accept the offer, in which case the money is divided as proposed, or reject it, in which case both individuals receive $0. If the Proposer makes the 'unfair offer' and the Responder accepts it, what is the final monetary outcome for the Proposer and the Responder, respectively?
Rational Decision in a Simplified Game
In a single-round interaction, a 'Proposer' is given $100 and must choose between two possible offers to a 'Responder': a '$50 offer' or a '$20 offer'. The Responder can then accept the offer, in which case the money is divided as proposed, or reject it, resulting in $0 for both. If the Proposer makes the '$20 offer', which statement best evaluates the central conflict the Responder faces?
Strategic Decision-Making Under Uncertainty
Evaluating a Strategic Decision
In a one-time interaction, an individual ('Proposer') is given $100 and must make a take-it-or-leave-it offer to another individual ('Responder'). The Proposer has only two choices: offer $50 (keeping $50) or offer $20 (keeping $80). The Responder can either accept the offer, in which case the money is divided as proposed, or reject it, in which case both individuals receive $0. Arrange the events for a scenario where the $20 offer is made and subsequently rejected.
