Our main result is to show that in a multiagent economy, the problem of determining efficient allocations … extending to a stochastic environment Geoffard's (1996) concept of variational utility and his result that variational utility … is equivalent to recursive utility, and then using these results to characterize allocations in a multiagent setting …

and combining those signals with priors to form posteriors. These posterior expectations exhibit as-if discounting: agents … forecasting (e.g., those with more intelligence) exhibit less discounting. Agents with more domain-relevant experience exhibit … less discounting. Older agents exhibit less discounting (except those with cognitive decline). Agents who are encouraged to …
