متن کاملA Note on Competitive Investment under Uncertainty
Uncertainty over future output prices or input costs can affect investment by a riskneutral firm in two opposing ways. First, it can increase the value of the marginal unit of capital, which leads to more investment. This only requires that the stream of future profits generated by the marginal unit be a convex function of the stochastic variable; by Jensen's inequality, the expected present va...
متن کاملThe Competitive Firm Under Price Uncertainty: The Role of Information and Hedging
We study the impact of transparency in a commodity market on the decision problem of a competitive firm under price uncertainty and hedging opportunities. Market transparency is modeled by means of the informational content of publicly observable signals which are correlated with the random price. We find that the impact of more transparency on labor employment and production depends on the fir...
متن کاملOptimal Output for the Regret-Averse Competitive Firm Under Price Uncertainty
We study the optimal output of a competitive firm under price uncertainty. Instead of assuming a risk-averse firm, we assume that the firm is regret-averse. We find that optimal output under uncertainty would be lower than under certainty. We also prove that optimal output could increase or decrease when the regret factor varies.
متن کاملCompetitive Capacity Investment under Uncertainty
We consider a long-term capacity investment problem in a competitive market under demand uncertainty. Two firms move sequentially in the competition and a firm’s capacity decision interacts with the other firm’s current and future capacity. Throughout the investment race, a firm can either choose to plan its investments proactively, taking into account possible responses from the other firm, or...
