In mid-2010, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela (both members of OPEC)produced an average of 8 million and 3 million barrels of oil a day,respectively. Production costs were about $20 per barrel, and the price ofoil averaged $80 per barrel. Each country had the capacity to producean extra 1 million barrels per day. At that time, it was estimated that each1-million-barrel increase in supply would depress the average price of oilby $10.a. Fill in the missing profit entries in the payoff table.b.
