Figure 14.1 represents the market for used bikes. Suppose buyers are willing to pay $200 for a plum (high-quality) used bike and $50 for a lemon (low-quality) used bike. Initially buyers believe that 50% of used bikes in the market are lemons (low quality). Compared to the outcome with neutral expectations, how many fewer bikes are sold in equilibrium?
