The two ex ante profit formulas from Examples 1(c)(i),(ii) add to the total (vbar/16)(1+k)(2-k); a pure ring identity.

/-- Example 1(c)(iii), summation part (Chatterjee & Samuelson, *Bargaining under
Incomplete Information*, Oper. Res. 31(5) 1983, §3, p. 842 [PDF 8]: "The sum of the
parties' profits is π_s + π_b = (v̄/16)(1 + k)(2 − k)").

With π_s(k) = (v̄/48)(2 − k)²(1 + k) and π_b(k) = (v̄/48)(1 + k)²(2 − k)
(Examples 1(c)(i),(ii)), the sum collapses: (2 − k)²(1 + k) + (1 + k)²(2 − k) =
3(1 + k)(2 − k), so the sum is (v̄/16)(1 + k)(2 − k). -/
