the main objective of this article is to present a comparative study of capital assets pricing models (capm) with extrapolating capital assets pricing models (x-capm) of companies admitted in tehran exchange market which is accomplished for the first time by investigators of this research in iran. accordingly, the statistical population under study of this research includes all companies admitt...

Many attribute the rise in obesity since the early 1980s to the overconsumption of fast food. A dynamic model of a differentiated-product industry equilibrium shows that a firm with market power will price below marginal cost in a steady-state equilibrium. A spatial hedonic pricing model is used to test whether fast food firms set prices in order to exploit their inherent addictiveness. The res...

Various contributions to the recent literature on congestion pricing have demonstrated that when services at a congestible facility are provided by operators with market power, the case in point often being a few airlines jointly using a congested airport, optimal congestion pricing rules deviate from the familiar Pigouvian rule that tolls be equal to the marginal external costs. The reason is ...

Creating successful competitive electric power markets requires transmission pricing reform. Due to the physics of power transmission networks, efficient transmission prices must incorporate two types of loop flow externalities, and must be determined jointly with efficient power (nodal) prices. Prior proposed market schemes all involve an approximation to the efficient prices. I propose a real...

remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. one of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. in addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...

This thesis investigates the application of marginal cost based spot pricing techniques to the short run coordination of decentralised, and potentially competitive, electricity markets. A Dispatch Based Pricing philosophy is proposed which requires that the dispatcher of a power system determine spot prices which are consistent with both the observed power system dispatch and the offers and bid...

We address the problem of pricing contingent claims written on electricity. The special feature of this paper is to consider contract pricing within a market for power producing plants. Calculating equilibrium prices for this market, we obtain a valuation for electricity contingent claims which is fair in the sense that arbitrage is excluded for capacity and claim trading.

A model of consumer behavior has been formulated by using an additive utility function and the hedonic pricing approach, in a virtual market. Since, there is a time lag between ordering and purchasing products (goods and services) online and receiving them, it means the consumer makes decision under uncertainty. The level of satisfaction with products with distinctive characteristics is describ...

Since information products have unique cost structure and characteristics, namely, high fixed cost and low variable cost, the traditional pricing strategy based on marginal cost theory can not be applied by the producers. This paper indicates a new principle of pricing--customer value (CV) principle. Based on the principle, the producers can execute a number of different pricing strategies to m...
