Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research investigates three issues related to the economic performance of oligopolistic markets where firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. First of all, this dissertation uses a Markov Perfect Equilibrium approach with fixed periods of commitment of actions to answer the question of what prices a duopolists will charge in equilibrium if they produce horizontally differentiated products, move alternatingly, and compete in prices forever. It is found that firms charge prices which are higher than Nash equilibrium prices but lower than the fully collusive equilibrium prices. Also, contrasted with the Nash equilibrium of the one-shot constituent game, the firm having the significantly higher demand responsiveness to its own price always charges a lower price than the other firm does although it has higher marginal cost. The dissertation then proceeds to study whether a firm can overcome its cost disadvantage by upgrading its product over the rival's, and if so, whether there exists a profit-division which will induce the low cost firm and the high cost firm to collude and no one has an incentive to cheat. The results show that (1) the ability of upgrading the product over the rival's can allow a high cost firm to earn higher profit than a cost advantaged low cost firm; (2) there exists at least one profit-division which can sustain full collusion; and (3) in the collusive equilibrium firms enlarge their quality differences to alleviate the price tension between their products. Finally, this work investigates the welfare effect of mergers which occur in an oligopolistic industry where firms produce differentiated products. It is shown that for the merger to be socially beneficial, the number of the merging firms must be less than the total number of firms in the industry minus the ratio of the products' own elasticity to cross elasticity. The analysis indicates that the welfare effect of a merger of a specific size depends on the substitutability among products of the industry.

Download or read book Theory of Markets written by Thin Tun and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1960 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerned primarily with oligopoly, this work includes a general study of pricing in three different markets--perfect competition, perfect monopoly, and imperfect competition. The solutions of these markets offered by Cournot, Smithies, Chamberlin, Stackelberg, Fellner, and Robinson are presented mathematically, followed by the author's own version of the theory of rational pricing in oligopoly. Previous authors have not allowed for all the variables arising from profit and price situations in the market. Here, more realistic assumptions and more complex analyses indicate that sellers in oligopoly situations do not always need to arrange specific agreements--hence, that "administered" pricing does not inevitably occur when the market is dominated by a few producers.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis studies how firms in an imperfectly competitive industry adjust their market strategies (such as prices, product quality, and exporting decisions) in response to varying market conditions. The first chapter develops a theoretical model on how firms decide on their product scope (the number of product varieties offered by the firms) in response to varying trade costs (such as transportation distances, exchange rate volatility, and tariff rates). The model predicts that firms export fewer varieties to destinations that are farther away from the home country, or that are subject to higher tariff rate or greater exchange rate volatility. The predictions of the model are tested by employing the Chinese firm-level data from the years 2001 and 2006. The second chapter is a theoretical model of an oligopoly producing vertically differentiated goods, where firms compete in quantities. I consider several alternative specifications of how set-up costs as well as variable costs differ across the chosen quality levels. The chapter focuses on the long run equilibrium, where the long run equilibrium number of firms is determined by the zero-profit condition implied by free entry and exit. The model determines conditions under which all firms produce both high-quality and low-quality variety and studies the effect of an expansion of market size on the quality levels and prices, and on the average price and average quality. An empirical test of a version of the model is carried out, using Chinese firm-level data. The third chapter studies a short-run duopoly model where firms may choose to specialize in different quality levels while competing in quantities rather than in prices. In stage one, firms choose their quality levels, and in stage two, they compete in quantities. The equilibrium prices of high-quality and low-quality goods emerge as outcome of the competition in quantities. This is in contrast to the mainstream literature on duopolies with vertical quality differentiation, which assume that firms set prices. The model is used to study how changes in income inequality affects the equilibrium qualities and prices." --

Chapter 2 …finishes with a comparison of the three most in‡fluential models of fi…rm heterogeneity and the oligopoly model put forward in the thesis. Chapter 3 addresses exporting uncertainty under heterogeneous popularity. Chapter 4 contains the chapter on …firm heterogeneity under oligopoly. Chapter 5 constitutes the models on …firm heterogeneity and endogenous quality. Chapter 6 points out the within-sector specialization model. Chapter 7 addresses the effect of importer characteristics on unit values and the role of markups and quality to explain this effect. Chapter 8 concludes.
