【摘要】This paper characterizes the optimal contract when a principal has subjective informationthat is correlated with an agent’s private information. We find that the principal’s subjectiveinformation alleviates the initial information asymmetry only if the correlation is sufficientlyhigh. The first-best outcome for the principal is not feasible unless the principal’s informationand the agent’s cost are perfectly correlated.
