Advertising Game. The soft-drink industry is dominated by Coke and Pepsi, and
each firm spends a lot of money on advertising. Suppose each firm is considering a
costly television commercial during halftime of the Super Bowl. The table shows
the payoff matrix of profits that each firm would receive from their advertising
decision, given the advertising decision of their rival. Profits in each cell of the
payoff matrix are given as (Coke, Pepsi). If each firm makes the decision whether
to advertise on the Super Bowl independently, what is the Nash equilibrium of this
