Complementary Monopolies and Bargaining
How should complementarities a¤ect antitrust merger policy? I introduce a two-stage strategic model in which complementary input sellers o¤er supply schedules to producers and then engage in bilateral bargaining with producers. The main result is that there is a unique weakly dominant strategy equilibrium and the equilibrium attains the joint pro t maximizing outcome. Output equals that of a bu...
متن کاملTime-Differentiated Monopolies
We consider sequential competition among sellers, with different consumers desiring the good at different times. Each consumer has the option of buying from a later seller. Each seller recognizes that future sellers are potential competitors. We find that if sellers do not know the previous history of sales, then an equilibrium price is necessarily the same as that which would be set by a simpl...
متن کاملCost Padding in Regulated Monopolies
In this paper we consider a regulated monopoly that can pad its costs to increase its cost reimbursement. Even while padding is inefficient the optimal incentive scheme tolerates some padding of costs to reduce the information rents paid to low cost types. It is shown that high cost firms pad costs more than low cost firms. We also show that cost padding moves pricing away from Ramsay optimal p...
متن کاملDynamic Monopolies of Constant Size
This paper deals with a polling game on a graph. Initially, each vertex is colored white or black. At each round, each vertex is colored by the color shared by the majority of vertices in its neighborhood. (All recolorings are done simultaneously). We say that a set W0 of vertices is a dynamic monopoly or dynamo if starting the game with the vertices ofW0 colored white, the entire system is whi...

This paper studies a simultaneous-move infinite-horizon delegation game in which the principal of a durable goods monopoly entrusts pricing decisions to a manager who enjoys consuming her monetary rewards but dislikes production effort. The delegation contract allows for continual interference with managerial incentives: in each period the principal rewards the manager according to her performa...
