(a) The envelope theorem is a general principle describing how the value of an optimization problem changes as the parameters of the problem change. In principle it is only a minor reduction in computational complexity. In practice it often clarifies one's view of a problem, and it is particularly important in allowing one to intuit the answer to certain important questions.
(b)Hidden information refers to the situation where the agent has better knowledge about the decisions he/she is taking on behalf of the principal.
