Give an example of a market with asymmetric information, and explain why it creates a problem for the efficient operation of that market.
Homework Answers
Asymmetric information occurs when in a certain transaction one party has more information than the other party. It leads to an inefficient outcome and market failure. For example, consider the case of real estate markets. here the sellers have more information than the buyer. If the seller knows that some apartments have certain flaws, he has no incentive to convey that to the buyer. The buyer has no way of knowing this information. If there are good apartments and bad apartments, the seller will want to sell the bad apartments at a higher price. This will be advantageous to him as the buyer cannot potentially guess which one is good and which one is bad. Therefore, there is inefficiency in the market and market failure occurs.
