In an auction, potential buyers compete for a good by submitting bids. Adam Galinsky, a social psychologist at Northwestern Univ

ersity, compared eBay auctions in which the same good was sold. He found that, on average, the higher the number of bidders, the higher the sales price. For example, in two auctions of identical iPads, the one with the higher number of bidders brought a higher selling price. According to Galinsky, this explains why smart sellers on eBay set absurdly low opening prices (the lowest price that the seller will accept), such as 1 cent for a new iPad. Use the concepts of consumer and producer surplus to explain Galinsky’s reasoning.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

More; Less

Explanation:

If there is a good current economic condition, people tend to save more and consume less at the present moment, because they don't know what the future holds (whether good or ugly ). They would have to save for the rainy days.

On the flip side, if there is good outlook on future economic conditions, people tend to save less because there is a better expectation of the future and they would rather consume more at the present.
