Abstract :
The principal-agent theory is applied to solve the problem with asymmetrical information in economics, management and society. Mathematically, the principal-agent problem is a bi-level programming problem which is very difficult to solve. In this paper, we design two kinds of linear incentive contracts consisting of linear screening contract and linear pooling contract to solve the principal-agent problem with asymmetric information and moral hazard
