摘要
This paper presents a manager controlled firm which does not minimize long-run costs even though the manager is the residual claimant maximizing a profit depending salary. The inefficiency results because the employment contracts are not binding in the long run. The manager is afraid of being replaced by a rival. Therefore he invests too much to strengthen his bargaining position in the contract renegotiation. The inefficiency is reduced by competition in the output market.
