Abstract
⺠Develop a general framework for modeling continuous information acquisition. ⺠Optimal monopoly price is always lower than standard monopoly price. ⺠Standard auctions with a reserve price remain optimal among symmetric mechanisms. ⺠Optimal reserve lies between mean valuation and standard reserve in Myerson (1981). ⺠Optimal asymmetric mechanism softens price discrimination against “strong” bidders.
