NEW BOOK: This textbook presents worked-out exercises on Game Theory, with detailed
step-by-step explanations, which both undergraduate and master’s students can use
to further understand equilibrium behavior in strategic settings. While most textbooks
on Game Theory focus on theoretical results; see, for instance, Tirole (1991),
Gibbons (1992) and Osborne (2004), they offer few practice exercises. Our goal is,
hence, to complement the theoretical tools in current textbooks by providing
practice exercises in which students can learn to systematically apply theoretical
solution concepts to different fields of Economics and Business, such as industrial
economics, public policy and regulation. (Link)

Equilibrium Simulator (Excel). This template allows you to find the equilibrium prices and quantities under a perfectly competitive market and monopoly. It also helps you to compare the two equilibria in terms of social welfare (Consumer and Producer Surplus, and Deadweight loss). Download the Excel template here.
