Answer to Question 1

If one party to an agreement holds information that the other does not, the difference can affect both of their incentives and behaviors. Due to the problem of asymmetric information the economic value a contract could potentially create may be diminished if the uninformed party cannot easily learn or verify important information, or if the informed party cannot credibly convey it.

Answer to Question 2

C
