The endogenous choice of delegation in a duopoly with input outsourcing to the rival

In a market in which a vertically integrated producer (VIP) supplies an essential input to a retail rival, we explore the role of managerial delegation when it shapes downstream firms’ incentives and determine the endogenous choice of delegation under both Cournot and Bertrand competition. The equilibrium choice of acting as a managerial firm, which is a standard result in literature of strateg...

On Storage Behavior under Imperfect Competition

This paper investigates the economic implications of storage behavior under imperfect competition. It evaluates the economic dynamics implied by a storage firm under alternative market structures. This includes perfect competition as well as imperfect competition under Cournot behavior. The conceptual analysis is used to specify and estimate a model of storage behavior, with an econometric appl...

Innovation, Licensing, and Price vs

In this paper, we develop a differentiated duopoly model with endogenous cost-reducing R&D and review the argument on welfare effect of price and quantity competition in the presence of technology licensing. We show that the standard conclusion on duopoly (Singh and Vives, 1984) can be completely reversed. Cournot competition induces lower R&D investment than Bertrand competition does. Moreover...

Horizontal Product Differentiation in Bertrand and Cournot Duopoly: the Bertrand Paradox Revisited and Comparative Competitiveness

This paper provides a simple model of endogenous horizontal product differentiation that has two important implications. First, the model can explain the “empirical Bertrand paradox” – the failure to observe homogeneous product Bertrand oligopoly. If product differentiation is possible at reasonable cost, then Bertrand firms would always invest in product differentiation. Using a quadratic util...

Competition and Cascades in Markets: an Agent-Based Model of endogenous Mergers

We present an agent-based model of endogenous merger formation in a market with turnover of market participants. We describe the dynamics of the model and identify the conditions under which market competition is sufficiently disrupted to prompt extended periods during which mergers are desirable. We also demonstrate how merger waves can be triggered by industry shocks and firm overconfidence. ...
