转嫁作为经济工具:论外生竞争、社会归宿与价格歧视

Pass-Through as an Economic Tool: On Exogenous Competition, Social Incidence, and Price Discrimination
Journal of Political Economy · 2020 · Jeanine Miklós‐Thal、Greg Shaffer

中文摘要

Weyl 和 Fabinger(2013)通过考虑外生数量进入市场的假设情形,分析了竞争的社会归宿以及三级价格歧视的产出与福利效应。然而,他们为此使用的公式仅在从零开始的外生数量的边际变化下,或需求函数为线性时才正确。我们展示了使用正确的公式将如何改变 Weyl 和 Fabinger 的分析,并得出关于竞争的社会归宿以及垄断与寡头市场中三级价格歧视的产出与福利效应的新结果。

Abstract

Weyl and Fabinger (2013) analyze the social incidence of competition and the output and welfare effects of third-degree price discrimination by considering the hypothetical entrance of exogenous quantity into a market. The formulas they use for this purpose, however, are correct only for marginal changes in exogenous quantity starting at zero or if demand functions are linear. We show how using the correct formulas changes Weyl and Fabinger’s analyses and leads to new results on the social incidence of competition and on the output and welfare effects of third-degree price discrimination in monopoly and oligopoly markets.
