Imagine that there are N agents. Furthermore, assume that agent i receives signal i U[-1, 1]. Signals are independently drawn and are only privately known. Assume that the payoff of an individual who is idle is equal to 0 and the payoff of an individual who is active is equal to π² = 0¹ + 0² + + Ai-¹ + i +Ai+¹ + ... + AN. a) No b) Yes ... Imagine that N = 4. Furthermore, let 0¹ = socially optimal to be active in this case? 3 ³,0² = 1, and 0³ = . Is it c) It depends on the precise value of 04 d) No, unless the fourth agent knows the signals of all other individuals. Imagine that there are N agents.
