Explaining the size differences of exporter productivity premia : theory and evidence
Geishecker, Ingo; Schröder, Philipp J. H.; Sørensen, Allan - 2014
Why is it that exporter productivity premia (EPP) differ so widely in size? We take this question to the theory and to the data. We derive the sectoral EPP in a standard heterogeneous firms trade model and apply the insights from the model to 13 years of data for all Danish manufacturing firms....

Mrázová, Monika; Neary, J. Peter; Parenti, Mathieu - 2018
We derive exact conditions relating the distributions of firm productivity, sales, output, and markups to the form of demand in monopolistic competition. Applications include a new “CREMR” demand function (Constant Revenue Elasticity of Marginal Revenue): it is necessary and sufficient for...

The limits of marketplace fee discrimination
Tremblay, Mark J. - 2021
Platforms often use fee discrimination within their marketplace (e.g., Amazon, eBay, and Uber specify a variety of merchant fees). To better understand the impact of marketplace fee discrimination, we develop a model that allows us to determine equilibrium fee and category decisions that depend...
