The agent’s value evolves according to a two-state Markov chain. The designer uses future allocation decisions to elicit private information. We solve for the optimal allocation mechanism. Unlike with transfers, efficiency decreases over time. In the long run, polarization occurs. A simple implementation is provided. The agent is endowed with a “quantified entitlement,” corresponding to the number of units he is entitled to claim in a row. date: 2020-08 date_type: published publisher: TSE Working Paper official_url: https://www.tse-fr.eu/sites/default/files/TSE/documents/doc/wp/2020/wp_tse_1133.pdf faculty: tse divisions: tse keywords: mechanism design keywords: principal-agent keywords: quota mechanism keywords: token budget language: en has_fulltext: TRUE subjectsJEL: JEL_C73 subjectsJEL: JEL_D82 view_date_year: 2020 full_text_status: public monograph_type: working_paper series: TSE Working Paper volume: 20-1133 place_of_pub: Toulouse pages: 64 institution: Université Toulouse 1 Capitole department: Toulouse school of economics book_title: TSE Working Paper oai_identifier: oai:tse-fr.eu:124604 harvester_local_overwrite: department harvester_local_overwrite: publish_to_hal harvester_local_overwrite: faculty harvester_local_overwrite: pending harvester_local_overwrite: subjectsJEL harvester_local_overwrite: abstract harvester_local_overwrite: pages harvester_local_overwrite: place_of_pub harvester_local_overwrite: creators_affiliation harvester_local_overwrite: institution harvester_local_overwrite: creators_idrefppn harvester_local_overwrite: creators_halaffid harvester_local_overwrite: hal_id harvester_local_overwrite: hal_version harvester_local_overwrite: hal_url harvester_local_overwrite: hal_passwd oai_lastmod: 2020-08-27T08:32:43Z oai_set: tse site: ut1 publish_to_hal: FALSE hal_id: hal-03187506 hal_passwd: r6u&7ln hal_version: 1 hal_url: https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-03187506 citation: Guo, Yingni and Hörner, Johannes (2020) Dynamic Allocation without Money.
