Neoclassical Models of Imperfectly Competitive Labor Markets
The scenario of perfect competition, as augmented by human capital theory, yields a large body of testable hypotheses concerning labor market outcomes. These hypotheses, overviewed in the first chapter of this volume, might all be understood as applications of three more fundamental implications of perfectly competitive equilibrium conditions: no unemployment or vacancies, the law of one wage, ...
متن کاملAsset Pricing Implications of Short-sale Constraints in Imperfectly Competitive Markets
We propose an equilibrium model to study the impact of short-sale constraints on market prices and liquidity in imperfectly competitive markets where market makers have significant market power and are averse to inventory risk. We show that shortsale constraints decrease bid because of the market power and increase ask because of the risk aversion. Our model can therefore help explain why short...
متن کاملDynamic Pricing in Competitive Markets
Dynamic pricing of goods in a competitive environment to maximize revenue is a natural objective and has been a subject of research over the years. In this paper, we focus on a class of markets exhibiting the substitutes property with sellers having divisible and replenishable goods. Depending on the prices chosen, each seller observes a certain demand which is satisfied subject to the supply c...
متن کاملGeneration Capacity Expansion in Imperfectly Competitive Restructured Electricity Markets
We consider three models of investments in generation capacity in restructured electricity systems that differ by their underlying economic assumptions. The first model assumes a perfect, competitive equilibrium. It is very similar to the old capacity expansion models even if its economic interpretation is different. The second model (open-loop Cournot game) extends the Cournot model to include...
متن کاملThe Welfare Implications of Risk Adjustment in Imperfectly Competitive Markets
Risk adjustment is a common policy for mitigating the effects of adverse selection when government regulation limits insurer ability to rate consumers according to their expected risks. I study the social welfare implications of risk adjustment. I first show theoretically that risk adjustment may reduce social welfare because it can increase the expected risk of consumers who select into the in...
