Will the foreign firm produce the good? Why or why not? Assuming no subsidy, will the home firm produce the good? Why or why not?

Step 1

The foreign firm's payoff matrix shows that if it produces the good, it will receive a payoff of $20, and if it does not produce, it will receive a payoff of $0. Since $20 is greater than $0, the foreign firm will choose to produce the good. Show more…
