Question 5(10 points +5 extra points):
Consider two tutoring companies (A and B). Each company has at their disposal very effective, but very expensive marketing teams. Each company makes \(\$ 50,000\) in revenue each year. If both \( A \) and \( B \) use their marketing team, it causes a spiral of competitive ads, and each will ultimately spend \(\$ 100,000\) on marketing. If company \( A \) acts first, using its marketing team, while B does not, then B will lose \$30,000 in revenue, and \( A \) will gain a net of \(\$ 10,000\) in revenue after marketing costs. This effect is symmetric if \( B \) acts first. If both companies spend no money on marketing, their revenues are unaffected.
