Thoughts
- We shouldn't include effort from the entrep. - we want a model that has no contract theory, just bargaining.
A Basic Model
- [math]V_t=V_{t-1} + f(x_t) - k \,[/math]
with
- [math]V_0=0, f(0)=0, f'\gt 0, f''\lt 0, k\gt 0 \,[/math]
should do us just fine. Having [math]k\gt 0\,[/math] will force a finite number of rounds as the optimal solution providing there is a stopping constraint on <mathV_t\,</math> (so players don't invest forever).
There are two simple methods that come to mind:
- <mathf'(0) >0, f<0, \exist z* s.t. \forall z > z* f'(z)<0\,</math>
Or we could force and exit once
- <math\sum_t (x_t) \ge \overline{x}\,</math>
In each period there is Rubenstein finite bargaining, with potentially different patience, and one player designated as last. This will give a single period equilibrium outcome with the parties having different bargaining strength.
