Book excerpt: Nowadays most firms compete for multiple separate markets as opposed to a single market. Extant IO works mainly focus on these firms' cooperative behavior, assuming away their capacity constraints and studying the effect of potential multi-market retaliation upon these firms' collusive incentive. With the assumption that the firms have a single capacity constraint, which applies to the multiple separate markets they compete for, this paper sheds light on the effects of the capacity constraint and demand linkages across different markets in the context of a non-cooperative duopoly model. Different from the classical single market capacity-constrained price competition theory, which has three regions divided by three different types of price equilibria as we adjust the firms' capacity constraints, two asymmetric markets capacity-constrained price competition has five regions divided by five different types of price equilibria as we adjust the firms' capacity constraints. An interesting result is that the firms do not always set higher price in the big or rich market than the small or poor market. When the capacities are endogenously determined, we find that the classical single market result (Kreps and Scheinkman 1983) that the Cournot-Nash quantity is a subgame perfect Nash equilibrium cannot hold for the two asymmetric markets competition model. In sum, the results of the asymmetric markets capacity-constrained price competition may yield different implications on merger, price leadership, and collusive behavior.

Book excerpt: We analyze unit and ad valorem taxes in Edgeworth-Bertrand duopoly. In Edgeworth-Bertrand duopoly the mode of competition is endogenous through firms' choice of capacity (Maggi, 1996). We show how commodity taxes co-determine capacity and thus competition intensity. In particular, we argue that shifts from ad valorem taxes towards unit taxes increase competition. We show that this effect can reverse the conventional preference for ad valorem taxation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates mixed strategy equilibria in a capacity-constrained price competition among three firms. It is shown that the equilibria in an asymmetric oligopoly are substantially different from those in a duopoly and symmetric oligopoly. In an asymmetric triopoly, it is possible that (i) a continuum of equilibria exits and that (ii) the lowest price of the smallest firm is higher than that of the others and the smallest firm earns more than the max-min profit in undominated strategies. In particular, the second finding sheds light on a new pricing incentive in Bertrand competitions. As an application, the equilibrium characterizations give rise to a new class of merger paradoxes.

Download or read book Oligopoly Dynamics written by Irina Sushko and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-03-25 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has its focus on the dynamics of oligopoly games. Several contributions show how easily the unique Nash equilibria in some most traditional oligopoly models may lose stability, giving way to complex phenomena, such as periodic/chaotic processes, and to multi stability of coexistent attractors. The bifurcations producing these phenomena are studied by means of recently accumulated global methods, based on the use of critical curves. These tools are explained in a separate methodological chapter. The book also contains some historical background of the present theory. In this way the book becomes suitable also as an advanced text for industrial organisation courses. The various models presented in the book focus both classical Cournot types, and Hotelling`s "ice cream vendor" problems, including location choice. The author list comprises some of the most prolific contributors to current dynamic oligopoly modelling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper formalizes, for the labor market, the traditional view that competition among the sellers leads to a fall in prices so long as there is excess supply. First we show that, at a Nash equilibrium of the one-period game, wages are set equal to the Walrasian wage. Then, similarly as in Edgeworth's analysis of duopoly, we take workers as engaging repeatedly in Bertrand competition, each one seeking at every date to make a best reply to the wages that all other workers are expected to quote. A quite reasonable condition on expectations is shown to be sufficient in order for the sequence of disequilibria to converge to Walrasian equilibrium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author attempts to present an exhaustive examination of the models that can be constructed by considering price and/or quantity at the strategic variables. These included the Cournot, Edgeworth and Bertrand cases as well as two further models reflecting the effect of inventory costs and penalties for failure to supply. Each model had a different noncooperative solution. The difference between Bertrand and Edgeworth hinged upon capacity conditions. Given limited capacity the price, price-quantity and stock penalty models all gave rise to an instability manifested by the existence of the Edgeworth cycle (which is of the same length for both the price and price-quantity models) and the somewhat different 'stockout cycles' when the stock penalty is sufficiently low in the stock penalty model. It is of interest to note that when the stockout penalty is large the resultant equilibria yield higher payoffs to the firms than they would obtain noncooperatively without the penalty. One may regard the penalty as providing an extra threat available to help enforce the equilibrium. The power of competitive price-cutting becomes so great that neither wishes to risk using the weapon too much.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Perfect Competition Perfect markets, also known as atomistic markets, are defined by a number of idealizing conditions that are together referred to as perfect competition or atomistic competition. This definition is found in the field of economics, more specifically in the theory of general equilibrium. In theoretical models when circumstances of perfect competition are present, it has been proved that a market will establish an equilibrium in which the quantity supplied for every commodity or service, including labor, matches the amount required at the current price. This equilibrium will be reached when the perfect competition criteria are met. An example of a Pareto optimal equilibrium would be this one.

This book was released on 2005-12-28 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main problems in current economic theory is to write contracts which are Pareto optimal, incentive compatible, and also implementable as a perfect Bayesian equilibrium of a dynamic, noncooperative game. The question arises whether it is possible to provide Walrasian type or cooperative equilibrium concepts which have these properties. This volume contains original contributions on noncooperative and cooperative equilibrium notions in economies with differential information and provides answers to the above questions. Moreover, issues of stability, learning and continuity of alternative equilibria are also examined.
