Computing Market Equilibria with Price Regulations Using Mathematical Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
One approach to modeling and solving for economic equilibria relies on mathematical programming. These models solve for competitive equilibria. However, policy analysis often requires measuring the impacts of government price regulations that differ from the competitive equilibrium. In this paper we provide a unified framework for computing market equilibrium in mathematical programming models in the presence of government price regulations. The iterative procedure that we use is essentially a Gauss-Seidel algorithmic strategy. The paper concludes by showing how to represent taxlrebate programs, averagecost pricing, and price ceilings.

Incorporating Return on Inventory Investment into Joint Lot-Sizing and Price Discriminating Decisions: A Fuzzy Chance Constraint Programming Model
Coordination of market decisions with other aspects of operations management such as production and inventory decisions has long been a meticulous research issue in supply chain management. Generally, changes to the original lot-sizing policy stimulated by market prices may impose remarkable deviation revenue throughout the supply and demand chain system. This paper examines how to set the chan...
متن کاملStrategic Behaviour in International Metallurgical Coal Markets
This paper analyses whether prices and trade-flows in the international market for metallurgical coals were subject to non-competitive conduct in the period 2008 to 2010. To do so, I develop mathematical programming models – a Stackelberg model, two varieties of a Cournot model, and a perfect competition model – for computing spatial equilibria in international resource markets. Results are ana...

متن کاملEnergy management of virtual power plant to participate in the electricity market using robust optimization
Virtual power plant (VPP) can be studied to investigate how energy is purchased or sold in the presence of electricity market price uncertainty. The VPP uses different intermittent distributed sources such as wind turbine, flexible loads, and locational marginal prices (LMPs) in order to obtain profit. VPP should propose bidding/offering curves to buy/sell from/to day-ahead market. In this pape...
متن کاملPrice Competition, Advertising and Media Market Concentration*
In media markets, the value of advertisement exposure depends on circulation, and media consumers’ valuation is affected by advertising. This paper analyzes media market competition in a duopoly framework. There exist symmetric and asymmetric equilibria in terms of firm size. There is less scope for asymmetry when products are more differentiated or of higher intrinsic quality. Some media exhib...
