This paper examines the problem of the presence or absence of BIC-DIC equivalence in the case of two agents and an auctioneer who sells the good with probability 1. Types of agents are discrete. This study includes a proof of the theorems on the presence of BIC-DIC equivalence in the linear case and its absence in the case of convex or concave utility functions.
