1. Consider the following simplified version of Google’s advertising auction. Assume that there are three bidders
for a certain keyword and two positions for sponsored clicks. The bidders’ respective values per click
are £60, £30 and £20. The valuations are common knowledge among bidders. The click-through rate
for the top position is 400 clicks per hour, and for the second position it is x clicks per hour.
a) In the generalised second-price (GSP) auction, for which x is it optimal for bidders to bid their respective
value per click if all other bidders also bid their values per click? What is the revenue of the auction?
How does it compare to the revenue in the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism?
b) Suppose that x = 200, and suppose that bidder 1 only bids a fraction α (α ≤ 1) of her value per
click (and the other two bidders bid their full value per click). For which α is this an equilibrium
in the generalised second-price auction?
c) Suppose that x = 200, and…

- It has been observed by management that some faculty members at theuniversity demonstrate a lackadaisical attitude toward teaching. They seldom go to class yet at the end of each month they receive full salary. Management has decided that GHs 200, 300, 400, and 500 will be deducted from a faculty’s salary if he/she offends once, twice, third time and forth time respectively in a month. This means that if a faculty member offends once in a month GHs200 will be deducted, if a faculty member offends twice in a month, GHs 500 (i.e. 200+300) will be deducted, if a faculty member offends three times in a month GHs 900 (i.e. 200+300+400), will be deducted and if a faculty member offends four times in a month GHs 1,400 (i.e. 200+300+400+500).
