The Baumol-willig Rule under Socially Optimal Non-linear Pricing*

چکیده

How should one regulate access to a network? The aim of this paper is to consider the optimality of a simple rule, the Efficient Component Pricing Rule (ECPR), under non-linear pricing for intermediate and final goods. The analysis focuses on the interactions between regulation and competition in a second degree price discrimination setting. Rather specific assumptions regarding competition and pricing are generally made by the related literature. Enlarging the pricing options we show the ECPR rule to be relatively robust as a guide to social optimality when the incumbent remains the monopolist of an intermediate good (e.g. a network facility) consumed both internally and by a potential competitor.

Under these conditions, we model the ret...

Optimal production and marketing planning with geometric programming approach

One of the primary assumptions in most optimal pricing methods is that the production cost is a non-increasing function of lot-size. This assumption does not hold for many real-world applications since the cost of unit production may have non-increasing trend up to a certain level and then it starts to increase for many reasons such as an increase in wages, depreciation, etc. Moreover, the prod...

Optimal taxation and public non-linear pricing

This paper analyses the question of the complementarity between income taxation and non linear pricing of public services in a general equilibrium framework with labour heterogeneity. The public service is viewed as a screening device which is supposed to use non linear pricing. In this framework, we show that even in general equilibrium and with labour heterogeneity, it is useful to supplement...
