The Investment Game under Uncertainty: An Analysis of Equilibrium Values in the Presence of First or Second
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we develop a valuation model when there exist two competitive firms that face irreversible investment decisions under the demand uncertainty. We propose a numerical procedure to derive both project values and equilibrium strategies in the duopolistic environment. In numerical examples we consider two different economic conditions, which are labelled first mover advantage and second mover advantage, and examine the effects of these conditions on the equilibrium strategies as well as the project values. We show that these conditions cause significant changes in the equilibrium strategies of both firms. JEL: G31,C61,C73

متن کاملObtaining a possible allocation in the bankruptcy model using the Shapley value
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an effective tool for supporting decision-makers to assess bankruptcy, uncertainty concepts including intervals, and game theory. The bankruptcy problem with the qualitative parameters is an economic problem under uncertainty. Accordingly, we combine the concepts of the DEA game theory and uncertain models as interval linear programming (ILP), which can be app...
