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...

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...

We find that as information quality improves, firms’ profits monotonically increase while consumer surplus an...

However, this dilutes the exclusivity of the brand, and results in...
