You are in the market for a used 2013 Honda Accord. You know that half of the 2013 Accords are lemons and half are peaches. If you could be assured that the Accord you were buying was a peach, you would be willing to pay up to $10,000. On the other hand, you would only be willing to pay $2,000 for a lemon.
