Input third-degree price discrimination by congestible facilities
This paper studies third-degree price discrimination by transport facilities, such as airports and seaports, which sell access to the infrastructure as a necessary input for downstream production. These facilities are prone to congestion –which makes downstream markets interrelated– and their ownership structure is diverse, varying from public (domestic welfare maximizing) to private (profit ma...
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 future needs, and less price-sensitive consu...

متن کاملPricing Congestible Network Resources
We describe the basic economic theory of pricing a congestible resource such as an ftp server, a router, a Web site, etc. In particular, we examine the implications of “congestion pricing” as a way to encourage efficient use of network resources. We explore the implications of flat pricing and congestion pricing for capacity expansion in centrally planned, competitive, and monopolistic environm...
