It is shown that an exponentially small departure from the common knowledge assumption on the number of repetitions of the prisoners' dilemma already enables cooperation. More generally, with such a departure, any feasible individually rational outcome of any one‐shot game can be approximated by a subgame perfect equilibrium of a finitely repeated version of that game.Log In To View Full Content

This document contains two main sections which correspond to Appendix B and Appendix C in the main text. In the first section we formally derive the closed forms presented in Sections 3.2 and 3.3 in the main text. In the second section, we derive the expression for the bias in the variance induced by the use of a pseudo-panel (such as the one we consider in our estimations).Supplement to What Drives Media Slant?

This appendix provides a more detailed analysis of a parameterized version of the consumer model presented in Section 4.1. It also illustrates some of the theoretical properties of the model and shows that the model can incorporate features observed in the data. Third, it shows the calibrated parameters of the model to match several key moments in data and further explores the features of the model. Finally, it reports how well this model can be approximated by the linearized version in Section 4.3 of the paper.Supplement to "Contract Pricing in Consumer Credit Markets"
