摘要
企业的任务分配决策直接决定企业的最终收益,而生产外部性是影响企业最佳任务分配方式选择的关键因素。考虑任务分配的两种生产外部性,即专业化分工的效率优势和任务多样化的互补优势,运用委托代理理论,研究两种生产外部性同时存在时企业最佳任务分配方式的选择问题。模型给出了不同情况下的均衡结果,根据均衡结果做进一步分析表明,当专业化分工比任务多样化具有相同或更大的生产优势时,最佳的任务分配方式是专业化分工;而当任务多样化具有相对大的生产优势时,最佳的任务分配方式是不确定的,企业的最佳选择由生产外部性、任务的观测误差以及相似任务之间观测误差的差距同时决定。
The decision of enterprises＇ task assignment determines the final profits directly. The production externality is the key factor which influences the optimal task assignment. Considering two kinds of production externality ： efficiency advantage of the specialization and complementary advantage of job diversification, and based on principal-agent theory, the choosing problem of optimal task assignment when two kinds of externality exist is studied. The model presents the equilibrium outcomes in different conditions. According to the equilib- rium outcomes, some conclusions are founded： the optimal way of task assignment is specialization in the condition that specialization has more production advantage than job diversification; on the contrary, the optimal task assignment is uncertain. The optimal choice is affected by the three factors： production externality, observation error of the task and the disparity on the observation error of the tasks.
