A public firm in a model of spatial duopoly with price discrimination
Beladi, Hamid; Chakrabarti, Avik; Marjit, Sugata - In: Economics Letters 123 (2014) 1, pp. 79-81
We visit the role of privatization in the location decision of firms in an industry where no firm can produce all varieties demanded. We demonstrate that the Nash equilibrium locations are socially optimal, in the presence of a publicly owned firm, notwithstanding the degree of privatization.

Market structure and strategic bi-sourcing
Beladi, Hamid; Mukherjee, Arijit - In: Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization 82 (2012) 1, pp. 210-219
We provide a new rationale for bi-sourcing, which refers to the situation where a final goods producer buys an input from an outside supplier and also produces it in-house. We also show the effects of the product market competition and the implications of different and common outside input...

Sequential Spatial Competition in Vertically Related industries with Different Product Varieties
Beladi, Hamid; Chakrabarti, Avik; Marjit, Sugata - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009
We demonstrate the sensitivity of the location of downstream firms, engaged in sequential spatial competition, to the vertical structure of an industry where no downstream firm can produce all varieties demanded.

Strategic bi-sourcing
Beladi, Hamid; Mukherjee, Arijit - University of Texas <San Antonio, Tex.>; University … - 2008
We provide a theoretical justification for bi-sourcing, which refers to thesituation where a final goods producer buys an input from an outside supplier and alsoproduces it in-house. Bi-sourcing occurs if the marginal cost of producing the input inhouseis higher than the marginal cost of outside...

A Game Model of Competition for Market Share between a New Good Producer and a Remanufacturer
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A. - 2016
We analyze the hitherto unstudied duopolistic interaction between a new good producer and a remanufacturer who compete for a dominant share of the market for a particular product. Each firm i spends d_i ≥ 0 on product development to sway consumers and this expenditure increases the likelihood...

Footloose foreign firm and profitable domestic merger
Beladi, Hamid; Mukherjee, Arijit - In: Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization 83 (2012) 2, pp. 186-194
We provide a new explanation for a profitable horizontal merger between Cournot oligopolists with symmetric constant returns to scale technologies and homogeneous goods. We show that a merger can be profitable if it prevents a foreign firm from undertaking FDI. Our result is due to the effect of...

City and Regional Demand for Vaccines Whose Supply Arises from Competition in a Bertrand Duopoly
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A.; Beladi, Hamid - 2022
We study a one-period model of an aggregate economy composed of cities and regions that demand vaccines designed to fight a pandemic such as Covid-19. The supply of vaccines is the outcome of Bertrand competition between two firms A and B. The marginal cost of producing the vaccine for both...
