, Chapter 17. Auctions and Bargaining
17.1 Auctions
Auction = a market process in which potential buyers bid on a good and the highest bidder
receives the good

Some goods don’t have well-established prices, making auctions a particularly useful method of selling that
encourages price discovery.

Types of auctions
Auctions can be split along two features:
1. How people place their bids
2. How price is determined

How bids are placed:
Open-outcry auction = bids are public. Auction in which bids are public and bidders compete
actively against each other
Sealed bid auction = auction in which bids are private, so that no bidder knows the bid of any
other participant

Four auction types:
1. Open outcry: English auction = (ascending price) auction in which the price increases
until there is only one standing bid and that bidder wins the item and pays his bid
- Dominant strategy: the winner will be the highest value bidder, and he or she
pays a price equal to the second-highest value (or slightly more if the second-
highest bidder bids his value exactly).
2. Open outcry: Dutch auction = (descending price) auction in which the price decreases
until a bidder stops the auction and that bidders wins and pays
number of competitors
- Strategy: willingness to pay x total number of bidders
3. Sealed bid: first-price auction = auction in which bidders privately submit bids at the
same time and the highest bidder wins and pays and amount equal to her/his bid
- Strategy: same as Dutch auction
4. Sealed bid: second-price auction = auction in which bidders privately submit bids at
the same time and the highest bidder wins and pays an amount equal to the second-
highest bid
- Dominant strategy: is to bid exactly your willingness to pay for the item

Open-Outcry Dutch Auctions - strategy
Open-Outcry English Auction - strategy
