It provides a framework for measuring the cost of misinformation or the value of improved information. If automobile purchases are based on imperfect gasoline mileage information, a discrepancy results between consumers' expected and actual fuel expenditures. Based on a survey of new car buyers, the empirical analysis yields estimates of the private and social cost of inaccuracies in automobile buyers' pre - purchase gasoline mileage estimates. The reliability of mileage information varied from different sources, but many consumers found the EPA fuel - economy ratings relatively unreliable.
