Critical Review of Pricing Schemes in Markets with Non-Convex Costs
We consider a market in which suppliers with asymmetric capacities and asymmetric marginal and fixed costs compete to satisfy a deterministic and inelastic demand of a commodity in a single period. The suppliers bid their costs to an auctioneer who determines the optimal allocation and the resulting payments, a typical situation in deregulated electricity markets. Under classical marginal-cost ...
متن کاملOptimal Pricing of Services with Switching Costs
Customer switching costs are an important factor in account-based services such as telecommu-nications, financial, insurance and brokerage services. In these businesses, existing customersincur significant costs if they switch to another provider. Such costs include physical config-uration and installation costs, contractual costs (e.g. termination fees) and cognitive costs ofle...
متن کاملOptimal Spatial Pricing Strategies with Transportation Costs
We consider an optimization problem in a given region Q where an agent has to decide the price p(x) of a product for every x ∈ Q. The customers know the pricing pattern p and may shop at any place y, paying the cost p(y) and additionally a transportation cost c(x, y) for a given transportation cost function c. We will study two models: the first one where the agent operates everywhere on Q and ...
متن کاملSimple vs Optimal Contests with Convex Costs
We study an optimal contest design problem where contributors abilities are private, their costs are convex as a function of their eort, and the designer seeks to maximize their total eort. We address the design of approximately optimal mechanisms that are robust in that they are independent of the ability distribution and the precise form of the cost function. We show that a very simple all-...
متن کاملGrowth optimal investment in horse race markets with costs
We formulate the problem of growth optimal investment in horse race markets with proportional costs and study growth optimal strategies both for stochastic horse races as well as races where one does not make any distributional assumptions. Our results extend all known results for frictionless horse race markets to their natural analog in markets with costs.
