题目: All Pay Quality-Bids in Score Procurement Auctions

摘要:We study score procurement auctions with all-pay quality bids, in which a supplier’s score is the difference between his quality and price bids. Equilibrium quality and price bids are solved without first obtaining the corresponding equilibrium scores. In particular, our approach accommodates the case with minimum score requirement. When the convex effect cost function takes a power form, a higher all-pay component of the quality bid reduces quality provision, total surplus and suppliers’ payoffs, but may increase or decrease the procurer’s payoff. If the procurer reimburses the all-pay components of losing suppliers or all suppliers, this would increase quality provision and suppliers’ payoffs, but reduce total surplus and the procurer’s payoff. Finally, we reply on our approach to identify the procurer-optimal score rule, which is quasi-linear in quality and price.
