Describe an example you have experience with of the principal-agent problem (for example, you have a desire for your children to listen in school and do well, while for them, goofing off at school might be much more fun), and explain how incentives can be used to overcome the principal-agent problem (such as paying your children for good grades).

A principal-agent problem I can recall includes the business owner wanting the employees to act on the owner’s behalf.

His act was not in the best interest of the company and/or business owner. Reply to 2-3 sentences. number you answer
