The Risk-Sharing Problem Under Limited Liability Constraints in a Single-Period Model

نویسندگان

چکیده

This work provides analysis of a variant the Risk-Sharing Principal-Agent problem in single period setting with additional constant lower and upper bounds on wage paid to Agent. The effect extra constraints optimal contract existence is studied leads conditions underlying utility functions under which an optimum may be attained. Solution characterization then provided along derivation Borch rule for Limited Liability. Finally, some applications, including CARA case, are discussed.

Optimal Risk Sharing With Limited Liability∗

We solve the general problem of optimal risk sharing among a finite number of agents with limited liability. We show that the optimal allocation is characterized by endogenously determined ranks assigned to the participating agents and a hierarchical structure of risk sharing, where all agents take on risks only above the agent-specific thresholds determined by their ranks. When all agents have...

Optimal risk sharing and borrowing constraints in a continuous-time model with limited commitment

We study a continuous-time version of the optimal risk-sharing problem with one-sided commitment. In the optimal contract, the agent’s consumption is a time-invariant, strictly increasing function of a single state variable: the maximal level of the agent’s income realized to date. We characterize this function in terms of the agent’s outside option value function and the discounted amount of t...

Single-period inventory problem under uncertain environment

This paper investigates the single period inventory Newsboy problem in a general uncertain environment. Here it is assumed that the uncertainty appears in the market demand of the product. Uncertain demand is used to describe a subjective estimate (not estimated by random/fuzzy demand), linguistically expressed by ‘‘demand is about n’’. Using identification functions of the uncertain variable w...

Dynamic Contracting with Limited Liability Constraints

We study a dynamic mechanism design problem in which a buyer seeks to procure an item from a single seller in multiple periods. The seller is privately informed about her procurement cost at each period, and this cost may be serially correlated over time. We restrict the buyer to use mechanisms satisfying a limited liability constraint: the seller’s flow payoffs must be non-negative at each per...

Information in tournaments under limited liability

The problem of designing tournament contracts under limited liability and alternative performance measures is considered. Under risk neutrality, only the best performing agent receives an extra premium if the liability constraint becomes binding. Under risk aversion, more than one prize is awarded. In both situations, performance measures can be ranked if their likelihood ratio distribution fun...
