The buyer’s type is his value  ∈ [ ] and the seller’s type is his cost  ∈ [ ]. The buyer’s value is drawn from a distribution (·) whose density (·) is nonzero on [ ], while the seller’s cost is drawn from the distribution  (·) whose density (·) is nonzero on [ ]. A trader observes his own type but not the type of the other trader. The buyer’s ex post utility from acquiring the...
