Retailers may face uncertainty about the profitability of local markets, which provide opportunities for learning when … retail entry with uncertainty and learning (from others). Using novel data about fast food chains, I estimate the model with … firm beliefs about market profitability. The estimates confirm the presence of uncertainty and learning. Most importantly …

We study relational contracts in a firm-worker relationship with mutual uncertainty about match quality. The worker's actions are publicly observed and generate output, and hence information about the match quality. Despite the absence of private information, uncertainty about match quality...
