Endogenous Monopoly Market Segmentation
The standard monopoly pricing problem is re-considered when the buyer’s type (e.g. age, income, experience) can be credibly disclosed at some cost. In the optimal sales mechanism with costly disclosure, the seller posts a “sticker price” available to any buyer, as well as a schedule of discounts available to those who disclose certain types. Unambiguous welfare implications are available in the...
متن کاملPolitical culture and monopoly price determination
In this paper we study the endogenous determination of monopoly price. Our proposed game of endogenous monopoly-price setting extends the literature on monopoly-price, monopoly rent-seeking contests and monopoly rentseeking rent-avoidance contests by (i) determining the monopoly price such that it maximizes a composite utility function that depends on two components: expected social welfare and...

The differences in the price of energy to economic sectors are linked to a number of system parameters and to public welfare. There are large disparities in energy prices within states when comparing residential and industrial prices although neoclassical economics predicts one price in markets. The large disparities between the two sectors across states negatively affects the efficiency of res...
متن کاملPrice Stability and Endogenous Productivity
I present a model, where firms’ markups are endogenous and are a function of the level of price stability in an economy. Because price signals are noisier in periods of unstable inflation, firms’ market power is higher in such periods. By raising their profits, this permits the survival of low productivity firms, thereby reducing aggregate productivity. By contrast, in periods of price stabilit...

This paper investigates the evolution of firm-level price and quality decisions in export markets. We develop a model of heterogeneous firms which endogenously choose their optimal price and product quality to build demand in each export market. Consistent with existing research, more productive firms produce higher quality products, charge higher prices, sell more units and achieve higher prof...
