This study intends to explore the factors which impact the individual performance of decision making when facing the conflict between corporate interests and individual interests. An n-player decision game was designed. In this game 2 to 13 subjects were randomly grouped, and their task was to offer a price. If the group total amount of price reach or exceed the specified value, the group will be allocated some premium, but the subject who offered the lowest price can get more premium. The results were as follows:(1) With the number of team member increases, the individual offering price will decrease, and this decreasing speed will slow off when the number of team member reaches seven. (2) People in groups of four and five offer a more efficient and rational price. (3) The bid way of male subjects is more flexible and adventurous than females. (4) Subjects offer a lower and more variable price in enough time condition than in time-pressed condition. (5) Increasing the total amount of premium and the allocation proportion will also decrease the bid.
