Suppose OPEC has only two producers, Saudi Arabia and Nigeria.Saudi Arabia has far more oil reserves and is the lower cost producer compared to Nigeria.The payoff matrix in Table 11-8 shows the profits earned per day by each country."Low output" corresponds to producing the OPEC assigned quota and "high output" corresponds to producing the maximum capacity beyond the assigned quota.
-Refer to Table 11-8.Is there a dominant strategy for Saudi Arabia and,if so,what is it?

A) Yes, the dominant strategy is to produce a high output.
B) Yes, the dominant strategy is to produce a low output.
C) No, there is no dominant strategy.
D) Yes, it has a dominant strategy depending on what Nigeria does.
