Racing under uncertainty: Boundary value problem approach
This paper explores the continuous time and continuous space model of racing under uncertainty put forward by Budd, Harris, and Vickers (1993) and allows for potentially asymmetric players. To prove the existence of Markov perfect equilibria, I use a boundary value problem formulation which is novel to the dynamic competition literature. In addition, by providing a new and intuitive definition ...
متن کاملThe Value of Uncertainty under Limited Commitment
In this paper, I analyze a simple financial contracting problem between a riskneutral financial intermediary and a risk-averse household, where the household receives an endowment that grows over time, and is unable to commit to the contract. I argue that in this environment, the presence of uncertainty in the household’s endowment may improve the household’s welfare by relaxing its commitment ...
متن کاملRobust contracting under common value uncertainty
A buyer makes an offer to a privately informed seller for a good of uncertain quality. Quality determines both the seller’s valuation and the buyer’s valuation, and the buyer evaluates each contract according to its worst-case performance over a set of probability distributions. This paper demonstrates that the contract that maximizes the minimum payoff over all possible probability distributio...
متن کاملTesting Value vs Waiting Value in Environmental Decisions under Uncertainty
This paper introduces the concept of the Testing Value into the analysis of environmental decisions under uncertainty and irreversibility. This value emerges in situations where the probability of receiving information concerning future economic bene ts and costs of development depends on the level of development carried out. We show that when information may be acquired also exogenously, the T...
متن کاملCost Stickiness: Value Creating or Value Destroying (The Iranian Experience)
This research reviews and tests two contradicting notions in cost stickiness literature by empirical recognition of the consequences of cost stickiness. Cost stickiness is consistent with both rational resource planning and opportunistic incentives of manager to increase personal benefits arising from status and power. Although both mechanisms involve asymmetric retention of slack, some of the ...
