In many storable-goods markets, firms are often aware that consumers may strategically adjust purchase timing in response to expected price dynamics.

This paper investigates the dynamic impact of consumer stockpiling on competing firms’ strategic pricing decisions in differentiated markets. The necessity of...

In the product improvement model, I assume that collecting consumer information allows firms to improve their product. In the supplemental g...

METHODS We calculated all commonly used price indices based on 2013 IMS Health data on sales of...

Reference prices are either externally (based on drug prices in other countries) or internally (based on domestic drug prices) determined. We ...
