With this piece of evidence, I try to shed light upon the effects of fixed and variable costs on revenues for four firms operating in the sectors of lathing and milling, packaging machine construction, mechanical component production and shoe parts building, all four in the vicinity of Bologna,...

Electronic shelf label (ESL) is an emerging price display technology around the world. While these new technologies require non-trivial investments by the retailer, they also promise significant operational efficiencies in the form of savings in material, labor and managerial costs. The presumed...

We document an asymmetry in the rigidity of 9-ending prices relative to non-9-ending prices. Consumers have difficulty noticing higher prices if they are 9-ending, or noticing price-increases if the new prices are 9-ending, because 9-endings are used as a signal for low prices. Price setters...

9-ending prices are a dominant feature of many retail settings, which according to the existing literature, is because consumers perceive them as being relatively low. Are 9-ending prices really lower than comparable non 9-ending prices? Surprisingly, the empirical evidence on this question is...

9-ending prices, which comprise between 40%–95% of retail prices, are popular because shoppers perceive them as being low. We study whether this belief is justified using scanner price-data with over 98-million observations from a large US grocery-chain. We find that 9-ending prices are higher...

We explore the validity of the 2-stage least squares estimator with l_{1}-regularization in both stages, for linear regression models where the numbers of endogenous regressors in the main equation and instruments in the first-stage equations can exceed the sample size, and the regression...
