Double-sided moral hazard and the nature of share contracts

Article Abstract:

A simple model of revenue- or profit-sharing arrangements based on double-sided moral hazard is used to explain some of the characteristics of these contractual arrangements. In particular, the model shows the optimality of linear contracts and the limited benefits derived from customizing terms. Such institutional arrangements are widely adopted in franchising, sharecropping, licensing, commercial leasing and contracts between authors and publishers.
