Network Externalities , Demand Inertia and Dynamic Pricing in an Experimental
This paper analyses dynamic pricing in markets with network externalities. Network externalities imply demand inertia, because the size of a network increases the usefulness of the product for consumers. Since past sales increase current demand, rms have an incentive to set low introductory prices to be able to increase prices as their networks grow. However, in reality we observe decreasing p...
متن کاملTelecommunications Demand and Pricing Structure: An Econometric Analysis
The main objective of this paper is to analyse residential demand by traffic destination, using a translogarithmic indirect utility function. We focus on five traffic directions, in order to construct a model adapted to evaluate the characteristics of telecommunications demand in a competitive market. The resulting price elasticities express high reactivity to own price changes for the main tra...
متن کاملBuyer-Optimal Demand and Monopoly Pricing∗
This paper analyzes a bilateral trade model where the buyer can choose any cumulative distribution function (CDF) supported on [0, 1], which then determines her valuation. The seller, after observing the buyer’s choice of the CDF but not its realization, gives a takeit-or-leave-it offer to the buyer. We characterize the unique equilibrium outcome of this game and show that in this outcome, the ...
متن کاملOn Optimal Pricing of Services in On-demand Labor Platforms
I consider the optimal pricing problem faced by a freelance worker on an on-demand labor platform. Service requests arriving while the worker is busy are lost forever. Thus an hourly (or per-unit-time in general) pricing strategy appropriately captures the opportunity cost of accepting a job. With the view of improving capacity utilization in the face of arrival uncertainty, the worker may be t...
متن کاملDemand management for telecommunications services
In this paper we develop a novel method of controlling the demand in a multi-class, QoS-enabled network, using pricing and resource allocation for income maximisation. We first present a solution to the problem of calculating the optimal prices and QoS for a single link using a limiting regime approximation, which reduces the associated computational burden. A heuristic algorithm is then propos...
