When actions are unobservable, heterogeneity in beliefs implies that the monotone likelihood ratio ranking does not ensure that the wage scheme in the optimal contract is non-decreasing in output. This is because differences in beliefs may affect the incentive provision in a non-monotone way. The standard monotonicity result with common beliefs extends to belief heterogeneity when the agent is more optimistic than the principal. Yet, in the reverse case, the optimal contract can be non-monotone.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaContractingHeterogeneous BeliefsMonotone Likelihood RatioMoral HazardOptimal contracts when the players think differentworking paperD82D86M52EconomíaDT/0000002090
