摘要：

When a firm and workers set contingent wages and employment, potential movements in several different prices enter into consideration. The firm's revenue depends on the selling price of its product. The workers have concerns about the prices of goods they buy, and the firm's owners may buy a different bundle of goods. Unless owners acquire their own firm's output or are fairly risk-averse relative to workers, wages will be indexed primarily to the price index of what workers buy and not to variations in the firm's selling price. This has been reported to be the typical empirical pattern.
