Resumen:
We examine the problem of endogenous entry in a single-unit auction when the seller’s´ welfare depends positively on the utility of a subset of potential bidders. We show that, unless the seller values those bidders´ ’welfare more than her own "private" utility, a nondiscriminatory auction is optimal.
