Book Synopsis Adverse Selection in Durable Goods Markets by : Igal Hendel
Download or read book Adverse Selection in Durable Goods Markets written by Igal Hendel and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An undesirable feature of Akerlof style models of adverse selection is that ownership of" used cars is independent of preferences and is therefore ad hoc. We present a dynamic model" that incorporates the market for new goods. Consumers self-select into buying new or used" goods making ownership of used goods endogenous. We show that, in contrast with Akerlof and" in agreement with reality, the used market never shuts down and that the volume of trade can be" quite substantial even in cases with severe informational asymmetries. By incorporating the" market for new goods, the model lends itself to a study of the effects of adverse selection on" manufacturers' incentives. We find that manufacturers may gain from adverse selection. We" also give an example in which the market allocation under adverse selection is socially optimal." An extension of the model to a world with many brands that differ in reliability leads to testable" predictions of the effects of adverse selection. We show that unreliable car brands have steeper" price declines and lower volumes of trade
Book Synopsis On Durable Goods Markets with Entry and Adverse Selection by : Maarten Janssen
Download or read book On Durable Goods Markets with Entry and Adverse Selection written by Maarten Janssen and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate the nature of trading and sorting induced by the dynamic price mechanism in a competitive durable good market with adverse selection and exogenous entry of traders over time. The model is a dynamic version of Akerlof (1970). Identical cohorts of durable goods, whose quality is known only to potential sellers, enter the market over time. We show that there exists a cyclical equilibrium where all goods are traded within a finite number of periods after entry. Market failure is reflected in the length of waiting time before trade. The model also provides an explanation of market fluctuations.
Book Synopsis Assortative Matching, Adverse Selection and Durable Goods by : Thomas W. Gilligan
Download or read book Assortative Matching, Adverse Selection and Durable Goods written by Thomas W. Gilligan and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, considerable progress has occurred in modeling durable goods transactions in dynamic settings under asymmetric information. Most notable among these contributions are the works of Hendel and Lizzeri (1999, 2002), Janssen and Roy (2002), and Hendel, Lizzeri and Siniscalchi (2005). I explore registration changes for a sample of business aircraft over the period 1980-1999 to test some of the predictions of these models. The empirical regularities highlighted in this paper support these models. My results are also consistent with the view that high levels of efficiency can obtain even when information asymmetries condition the durable good trading environment.

Download or read book Middlemen and the Adverse Selection Problem written by Timo Vesala and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We demonstrate that the coexistence of an uncoordinated search market and a middleman market may alleviate adverse selection in the trade of goods of different quality. Inability to conduct trade penalizes sellers of low-quality goods disproportionately, encouraging them to trade via middlemen. A semi-separating equilibrium exists when a sufficient number of sellers of low-quality goods choose the middleman market to allow high-quality goods to be successfully traded in the search market. The result may explain why a search market can survive alongside a coordinated market, a phenomenon characteristic, for example, of markets for used cars, housing and labor.

Book Synopsis Manufacturer Certification in Second-hand Markets by : Marium Ashfaq
Download or read book Manufacturer Certification in Second-hand Markets written by Marium Ashfaq and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyse an overlapping generations model of manufacturer certification in durable goods markets with asymmetric information about the quality of used goods. The functioning of second-hand markets has two effects on markets for new goods, a substitution and a resale value effect. Through certification, manufacturers reduce adverse selection in second-hand markets and extract resulting rents through the markets for new goods. Certification may increase profits at the expense of social welfare, by increasing average quality while decreasing trading volume. Manufacturers may be willing to subsidise certification to increase profits on new goods and thus have an advantage over third-party certifiers.

Book Synopsis Lemons and Leases in the Used Business Aircraft Market by : Thomas W. Gilligan
Download or read book Lemons and Leases in the Used Business Aircraft Market written by Thomas W. Gilligan and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given adverse selection, durable goods that trade less frequently depreciate more quickly. Consistent with this prediction, I find an inverse relationship between depreciation and trading volume for less reliable brands of used business aircraft. Additionally, recent theoretical analyses suggest that leasing, by increasing the average quality of used goods offered for sale, may reduce adverse selection in durable goods markets. Indeed, I find an increase in the direct relationship between depreciation and trading volume for aircraft models with relatively high lease rates. Together these findings suggest that adverse selection is a prominent feature of the market for contemporary used business aircraft and that leasing mitigates the consequences of asymmetric information about the quality of used durable goods.
Book Synopsis Handbook on the Economics of Retailing and Distribution by : Emek Basker
Download or read book Handbook on the Economics of Retailing and Distribution written by Emek Basker and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook explores and critically examines current research in economics and marketing science on key issues in retailing and distribution. Providing a rich perspective for the discussion of public policy, contributions from several disciplines and continents range from the history of chains and the impact of multinational retailers on international trade patterns to US merger policy in the retail context, the rise of the Internet, and consumer-to-consumer sales. The chapters address methodological issues such as the structural estimation of entry games between retailers, productivity measurement when both inputs and output are not fully observable, and demand estimation with variable assortment. Policy issues explored include mergers, zoning, and the regulation of buyer power, while other chapters address some of the recent exciting developments in technology, retail formats, and data availability. The book goes on to study the changes in online retailing and ‘big data’, and to examine competition in specific retail sectors including gasoline stations, automobile dealerships, supermarkets, and ‘big box’ retail. This state-of-the-art Handbook is an essential reference for students and academics of economics and marketing science, and offers an outsider’s perspective to specialists in operations research, data analytics, geography, and sociology.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Insurance by : Georges Dionne
Download or read book Handbook of Insurance written by Georges Dionne and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 980 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1970's, the research agenda in insurance was dominated by optimal insurance coverage, security design, and equilibrium under conditions of imperfect information. The 1980's saw a growth of theoretical developments including non-expected utility, price volatility, retention capacity, the pricing and design of insurance contracts in the presence of multiple risks, and the liability insurance crisis. The empirical study of information problems, financial derivatives, and large losses due to catastrophic events dominated the research agenda in the 1990's. The Handbook of Insurance provides a single reference source on insurance for professors, researchers, graduate students, regulators, consultants, and practitioners, that reviews the research developments in insurance and its related fields that have occurred over the last thirty years. The book starts with the history and foundations of insurance theory and moves on to review asymmetric information, risk management and insurance pricing, and the industrial organization of insurance markets. The book ends with life insurance, pensions, and economic security. Each chapter has been written by a leading authority in insurance, all contributions have been peer reviewed, and each chapter can be read independently of the others.
