摘要:
In the context of bilateral agency contracts in which the input of each agent cannot be contractually enforced, this paper asks, What determines the relative shares of the agents? The answer is simple and surprisingly general. The relative shares are given by the fourth root of the inverse ratio of the slopes of marginal products. This result is applied to several examples of bilateral agency contracts. (C) 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
