Dynamic Investment Strategies for Information Systems Development
This paper presents an analytical model for choosing optimal investment schedules for the development of new systems under various types of risk. Two modes of risk reduction are considered. In the first mode, risk is reduced by gathering information through prototype building or sequential development, where risky parameters are assumed to have unknown but fixed values. The second mode involves...
متن کاملConsumption, investment and life insurance strategies with heterogeneous discounting
In this paper we analyze how the optimal consumption, investment and life insurance rules are modified by the introduction of a class of time-inconsistent preferences. In particular, we account for the fact that an agent’s preferences evolve along the planning horizon according to her increasing concern about the bequest left to her descendants and about her welfare at retirement. To this end, ...
متن کاملRailway Infrastructure: Pricing and Investment
This paper analyses the requirements for rail infrastructure charging, laid down in directive 2001/14/EC. It calls for marginal cost pricing and allows for mark-ups. Four standard pricing principles are analyzed on their suitability for track charging. It is found that no charging system proves superior and that the EC legislation is in line with economic theory. Scrutinizing the tariff systems...
متن کاملDynamic investment strategies with demand-side and cost-side risks
Investments in cost reductions are critical for the long run success of companies that operate in dynamic and stochastic market environments. This paper studies optimal investment in cost reductions as a real option under the assumption that a single firm faces two different sources of risk, stochastic demand and input prices. We derive optimal investment strategies for a monopoly as well as a ...
متن کاملDynamic Investment Strategies and Leadership in Product Innovation
We employ a dynamic market model with endogenous creation of submarkets to study the optimal product innovation strategies of incumbent firms. Firms invest in production capacity and R&D knowledge stock, where the latter determines the hazard rate of innovation. We find that under Markov Perfect Equilibrium behavior the firm with a larger market share on the established market is less likely to...
