Intertemporal price discrimination and competition
In this study we investigate the impact of competition on markets for non-durable goods where intertemporal price discrimination is possible. We develop a simple model of different potential scenarios for intertemporal price discrimination and implement it in a laboratory experiment. We compare the outcomes in monopolies and duopolies. Surprisingly, we find that competition does not necessarily...
متن کاملIntertemporal Price Discrimination in Storable Goods Markets
We study intertemporal price discrimination when consumers can store for future consumption needs. To make the problem tractable we o¤er a simple model of demand dynamics, which we estimate using market level data. Optimal pricing involves temporary price reductions that enable sellers to discriminate between price sensitive consumers, who anticipate purchases for future consumption, and less p...

متن کاملPrice vs. Quantity in Oligopoly Games
Price-setting and quantity-setting oligopoly games lead to extremely different outcomes in the market. One natural way to address this problem is to formulate a model in which some firms use price while the remaining firms use quantity as their decision variable. We introduce a mixed oligopoly game of this type and determine its equilibria. In addition, we consider an extension of this mixed ol...
متن کاملIntertemporal Price Discrimination and Investment in Brand Equity
We consider a firm that produces a specialty or a branded image good, where consumers derive part of their utility from the eliteness of the brand’s image and exclusivity of the product. Once high valuation consumers have purchased the product, it is optimal for the firm to reduce the price and capture lower valuation consumers. However, this dilutes the exclusivity of the brand, and results in...
