| The donation game may be applied to markets. Suppose X grows oranges, Y grows apples. The marginal utility of an apple to the orange-grower X is b, which is higher than the marginal utility (c) of an orange, since X has a surplus of oranges and no apples. Similarly, for apple-grower Y, the marginal utility of an orange is b while the marginal utility of an apple is c. If X and Y contract to exchange an apple and an orange, and each fulfills their end of the deal, then each receive a payoff of b-c. If one "defects" and does not deliver as promised, the defector will receive a payoff of b, while the cooperator will lose c. If both defect, then neither one gains or loses anything. | | The donation game may be applied to markets. Suppose X grows oranges, Y grows apples.

− | 捐赠博弈可能适用于市场。假设 X种橘子,Y 种苹果。苹果对橙子种植者 X 的边际效用是 b,这比橙子的边际效用c高,因为 x 有橙子剩余而没有苹果。同样,对于苹果种植者 y 来说,橙子的边际效用是 b,而苹果的边际效用是 c。 如果 x 和 y 签约交换一个苹果和一个橙子,并且每个人都完成了交易,那么每个人都会得到 从b到c 的效用收益。如果一方违约没有按照承诺交货,那么这个违约者将得到 b 效用的收益,而合作者将失去 c的效用收益。 如果两者都违约,那么谁也不会得到或失去任何东西。 | + | 捐赠博弈可能适用于市场。假设 X种橘子,Y 种苹果。苹果对橙子种植者 X 的边际效用是 b,这比橙子的边际效用c高,因为 x 有橙子剩余而没有苹果。同样,对于苹果种植者 y 来说,橙子的边际效用是 b,而苹果的边际效用是 c。 如果 x 和 y 签约交换一个苹果和一个橙子,并且每个人都完成了交易,那么每个人都会得到 从c到b的效用收益。如果一方违约没有按照承诺交货,那么这个违约者将得到 b 效用的收益,而合作者将失去 c的效用收益。 如果两者都违约,那么谁也不会得到或失去任何东西。 |
