Question
You are in the market for a used 2006 Honda Accord. You know that half of the 2006 Accords are lemons and half are peaches. If you could be
assured that the Accord you were buying were a peach, you would be willing to pay up to $10,000. On the other hand, you would only be willing
to pay $2,000 for a lemon. You have no ability to discern whether any particular Accord is a lemon or a peach. Sellers of Accords, on the other
hand, are likely to know whether their particular car is a lemon or a peach. Suppose sellers of lemons will sell their cars for $1,500 or more and
peach sellers will be willing to sell their cars for $8,500 or more.
Over time the price in the market for 2006 Accords will
and
will be traded.
O A. be between $8,500 and $10,000; only peaches
O B. be between $1,500 and $2,000 for lemons; only lemons
OC. be between $8,500 and $10,000 for peaches and between $1,500 and $2,000 for lemons; both lemons and peaches
