You have worked for a company for several years at a mid-level manager. A Vice President announces that she plans to retire in one year. You and two other managers at your level are candidates to replace her. One of the candidates (Person C) works in another division and you rarely interact with C. The other candidate (Person B) works in your division, and you and you often work closely with B on projects of various kinds.

The race for the VP job is currently very close and it's likely go to the person who performed at the highest level in the next 12 months. Because you often work closely with B, B is in a position to affect the outcome of project for which you have primary responsibility. The opposite is also true: you are in a position to affect the outcome of projects for which B has primary responsibility. The situation might be viewed as a two-person game between you and B in which you have two possible course of action.

Making any other assumptions that may be necessary (be sure to note them explicitly) describe what needs to be true for this situation to resemble a Prisoner's Dilemma. Think of payoffs in terms of the probability of you and person B getting the job. Your answer should provide the payoffs associated with the payoff matrix below.That is your answer should provided values (probabilities) for (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g).
