摘要:
We propose a new, easy-to-implement class of payment rules, Reference Rules to make core-selecting package auctions more robust. Small, almost-riskless, profitable deviations from truthful bidding are often easy for bidders to find under currently used payment rules. Reference Rules perform better than existing rules on our marginal-incentive-to-deviate criterion, and are as robust as existing rules to large deviations. Other considerations, including fairness and comprehensibility, also support the use of Reference Rules. (JEL: D44, C71)
