چکیده

Crosssection estimates using state tax data indicate that these exemptions significantly increase the market share of nonprofit firms vis-d-vis their for-profit counterparts. The relative market shares of nonprofit and for-profit firms is also affected by rapid increases in demand for an industry's services and by the size of the governmental sector.

متن کاملAsymmetric Taxation in a Competition Between Nonprofit and For-Profit Firms
This paper considers a Cournot competition between a nonprofit firm and a for-profit firm in a homogeneous goods market, with uncertain demand.

Furthermore, we analize the effects of the tax rate and the degree of altruistic preference on market equilibrium outcomes.
