Applying the Premium for Honesty Why McDonalds rewards its franchisees A McDonald’s franchise has large value to the owner. Why doesn’t McDonald’s just raise the franchise fee?

Applying the Premium for Honesty Why McDonalds rewards its franchisees The answer seems to be to encourage honesty. –It takes time to discover a dishonest franchise holder –There must be a reward for honesty or else people would cheat.

Applying the Premium for Honesty Overpaying Managers John Smith has been doing good work, for $10 an hour, the market wage.

Applying the Premium for Honesty Overpaying Managers John Smith has been doing good work, for $10 an hour, the market wage. You are willing to promote him to manager, on the basis of asymmetric information. –That is, you know he is good but the market will not recognize that nor will it value it.

Applying the Premium for Honesty Overpaying Managers The promotion means extra stress and calls for some extra compensation. You could give him a pay raise to $15 an hour, which would provide exact compensation for the extra stress. (That is, leave him on the same indifference curve)

Applying the Premium for Honesty Overpaying Managers It is all gain this way. He gets the extra $5 an hour until he is found out, without incurring the stress that comes with being a good manager.

Applying the Premium for Honesty Non-Salvageable Investments Another way of handling asymmetric information.
