    Important note: Problem 8 has a typo! The second-to-the-last sentence should read as follows: "If the child refuses to go to the grandmother’s house, and the father punishes the child, the child loses one unit of utility, and the father loses one unit of utility." The textbook incorrectly uses the word "receives" instead of "loses" here. (Solutions)
