A factory owner wants his workers to produce as many widgets as they can, so he pays his workers based on how many widgets they produce. However, in order to make sure that the workers do not rush and produce a large number of poorly made widgets, he checks the widgets at random at various stages of their manufacture. If a defect is found in a widget, the pay of the entire section of the factory responsible for that defect is docked. How is this factory owner seeking to solve the agency conflict problem in this case?
◦ by ensuring that all workers co-operate to maximize the gains of their section
◦ by maximizing the information that the principal obtains about the behavior of the agents
◦ by making the agents into principals themselves
◦

by supplying incentives so the agents act in the way principal desires
