       (a)   The game has no unique solution.

       (b   A and B have different dominant strategies.

       (c)   Both parties will act selfishly.

       (d)   The game has no Nash equilibrium.

       (e)   B will cooperate if A behaves selfishly and act selfishly if A cooperates.

       (b)   The contract price will be higher when A has the option to reject the painting.

       (c)   Since B’s reliance expenditure equals the cost of painting the portrait, the reliance and expectation measure of damages are identical.
