Creating GainsDifferences

Chance of winning: Jessie 60%, Sharks 10%

Revenues if win: Jessie 10, Sharks 12.

Revenue if lose: Jessie 5, Sharks 2

What is value to Jessie of 10% of revenues up to 10m vs 10% of rev.

Same value, but cost of latter is higher to Sharks

What is cost to Sharks of 10% of revenues if lose vs. 10% of first 2m if lose

Same cost, but value of latter is higher to Jessie

Jessie gets 2--5 in M if lose (as Sharks think this has zero probability) -- worth .4*3=1.2

Sharks get 10--12 in M if win (as Jessie thinks this has zero chance)

But none are Pareto in a larger context.

Sharks get 0--2 in merchandising (“M”) as M is always at least 2Jessie gets 2--5 in M if lose (as Sharks think this has zero probability) -- worth .4*3=1.2Sharks get 10--12 in M if win (as Jessie thinks this has zero chance)

If Jessie gets 100% of 2--10 if Sharks win -- worth .6*8 = 4.8; costs .1*8=.8 to Sharks (6:1)Add $1 million guarantee and package is worth 7m to Jessie with cost of 1.8 to Sharks (this beats B and

C). If Jessie only gets half of 2--10 M, then Jessie gets 4, Sharks pay 1.4 and so this beats/ties E. Hence none of B, C, and E are Pareto.

What about adding a bonus if win? For each dollar, Jessie goes up .6, Sharks go down 0.1.Again, 6:1. If add $2 million bonus, Sharks are at $2 million, Jessie is at $8.2mWhat about first 2m of bonus? Does Jessie really need a salary guarantee?

15

BettingWhat do you (as Jessie) make of the fact that Sharks think chance of

winning is 10%

Are these joint gains real?

Do you revise your beliefs?

Do you as Sharks or as Jessie reveal your true views? (If so, to whom?)

Jessie is betting $8 million that he will win the championship. How is this different than what Pete Rose did?

Is it better or worse?

What do you expect the agent will do that may not be in Jessie’s interest

What is agent getting 5% of Sharks contract but nothing of Five-Ways? (Not very sensible)

How would you redesign the contract?

¤ Who lies in tape?» About probability of winning» About size of merchandise profits

Team #1

Interests versus positions

Sharks talk/listen ratio is off

What do you think of Jessie’s agent?

Is it reasonable or not to consider salaries below 2.5m when that was on the table?

Concede at the right price?

23

Team #2

Sharks listen

Truthful revelation of Jessie’s probabilities

Shark’s reciprocate

Jessie: I’m that good. Shark’s: Then bet on your yourself

Less upfront and more performance based

24

Team #3

What share is reasonable: 50%

Do you have the numbers in place at that point?

Sharks accept principle without accepting 50% anchor.

Well done or not?

25

Team #3

What share is reasonable: 50%

Do you have the numbers in place at that point?

Sharks accept principle without accepting 50% anchor.

(But perhaps they should go even more. What fixed salary would you give up to go to 50%? What about 100%?)

26

Team #4

Exaggerating value of merchandising

Jessie wants contingency fee

Agent resists

Sharks appeal to Jessie
