Abstract

Este trabajo contribuye a la literatura de la comparación entre torneos y contratos lineales con restricciones de responsabilidad limitada, en particular cuando hay más de un agente por equipo. El estudio encuentra que los contratos lineales nunca permiten la implementación del first best bajo estas condiciones, mientras que en algunos casos, los torneos ordinales sí. El trabajo también examina los efectos del multitasking en la provisión de esfuerzos y muestra que con tareas complementarias, el diferencial de premios necesario para lograr el first best siempre es menor que sin multitasking. Sin embargo, con tareas sustitutas, el diferencial óptimo depende del beneficio marginal de realizar la tarea individual y del grado de sustituibilidad entre tareas. El trabajo sugiere posibles extensiones del modelo, incluyendo un enfoque de juego dinámico y la posibilidad de que el principal controle el pago por el resultado individual en un modelo similar a una subasta.
