According to an article in The Wall Street Journal, side-impact crashes are among the deadliest, accounting for nearly 10,000 deaths per year. Child safety concerns have kept auto manufacturers from making side-impact airbags standard equipment, though they are optional on most middle- to higher-market automobiles. Openly critical comments by General Motors's Ron Zarrella that other manufacturers' airbag systems inflate too powerfully and present a potential hazard to children have led to an industrywide study aimed at devising a common set of safety standards for side-impact airbag systems. Part of the trick of developing a set of standards that will protect both adults and children equally is getting the industry to agree on a single set of standards. Suppose that such standards are developed and that Ford and GM must simultaneously decide whether to make side-impact airbags standard equipment on all models. Side-impact airbags raise the price of each automobile by $500. If both Ford and GM make side-impact airbags standard equipment, each company will earn profits of $1.5 billion. If neither company adopts a side-impact airbag technology, each company will earn about $0.5 billion (due to lost sales to other automakers). If one company adopts the technology as standard equipment and the other does not, the adopting company will earn a profit of $2 billionand the other company will lose $1 billion. If you were the decision maker at GM, would you make side-impact airbags standard equipment? Explain.
