Expected payoff of a hard worker


Problem: Suppose you have hired a new worker, unfortunately you do not know if the worker is a shirker or a hard worker. Suppose working hard raises the probability of making a sale from 40% to 80% (thus raises the probability of making a commission C by the same percentage). If the cost of working harder is $150,what commission C should you offer the worker to provide an incentive to work hard.
