A variation of the ultimatum game introduces competition among Responders. In this setup, a single Proposer offers a two-way split of a sum, such as $100, to two Responders simultaneously, rather than to just one.

How does the introduction of the second buyer most likely alter the negotiation dynamics and the final selling price?

Predicting Negotiation Outcomes with Competition
In a negotiation game, a Proposer is given $100 to divide. The Proposer makes a single take-it-or-leave-it offer simultaneously to two Responders. If at least one Responder accepts the offer, the Proposer keeps the remaining amount, and one of the accepting Responders (chosen at random if both accept) receives the offered amount. If both Responders reject the offer, no one receives any money. Assuming all participants are rational and seek to maximize their own payoff, which of the following offers from the Proposer is most likely to be accepted while maximizing the Proposer's gain?
Impact of Competition on Bargaining Power
In a negotiation where a Proposer makes a single take-it-or-leave-it offer to two Responders simultaneously, the Proposer's bargaining power is diminished compared to a situation with only one Responder, leading to a smaller share of the total sum for the Proposer.
Comparative Analysis of Bargaining Dynamics
In a negotiation where a Proposer makes a single take-it-or-leave-it offer to two Responders simultaneously, why would a rational Responder be more likely to accept a very low offer (e.g., 1% of the total sum) compared to a situation with only one Responder?
In a negotiation game, a Proposer is given $100 and makes a single take-it-or-leave-it offer simultaneously to two Responders. The Proposer offers to give one of them $1. If both Responders reject, everyone gets $0. If one or both accept, the deal is made with one of the accepting Responders (chosen randomly if both accept), and the Proposer keeps the rest. From the perspective of a purely self-interested Responder, what is the primary reason to accept this $1 offer?
