Optimal access pricing for natural monopoly networks when costs are sunk and revenues are uncertain
This paper studies optimal access pricing for natural monopoly networks with large sunk costs and uncertain revenues. Using techniques from the option pricing literature, we show that the optimal access price corresponds to a risk-free form of the Efficiency Component Pricing Rule (ECPR), that is, where the opportunity cost is based on the risk free rate of return. We also show that at levels o...
متن کاملPoverty Orderings when Welfare Comparisons are Uncertain
In applied welfare economics, equivalence scales for household composition and size corrections, and appropriate price de‡ators are minimum requirements to perform interhousehold comparisons of welfare, measured via household income or consumption information. In practice, the information available is insu¢cient and only approximate price or household composition corrections are available. Pove...
متن کاملTreatment Decisions When There Are Multiple Options
This paper suggests a simple framework for analyzing treatment decisions when a patient is faced with multiple options, all of which are uncertain, and differ in terms of duration, sideeffects, and outcomes. The model allows for a fallback plan if the first treatment fails so that simply ranking treatments by their expected return is not optimal. The optimal treatment plan is patient specific. ...
متن کاملWhen are Options Overpriced ? The Black - Scholes
An important determinant of option prices is the elasticity of the pricing kernel used to price all claims in the economy. In this paper, we rst show that for a given forward price of the underlying asset, option prices are higher when the elasticity of the pricing kernel is declining than when it is constant. We then investigate the implications of the elasticity of the pricing kernel for the ...
متن کاملRobust Wagner–Whitin algorithm with uncertain costs
In real-world applications, costs for products are not deterministic: neither static nor dynamic. They actually tend to be non-stationary and cross-correlated. To overcome this drawback, there have been some efforts by researchers to extend the Wagner–Whitin algorithm to consider stochastic costs. However, they assume that the information of probability density function of random costs exists. ...
