Turbulence in high growth and declining industries
Baptista, Rui; Karaöz, Murat - 2007
We examine turbulence over the product life cycle using the lowest possible level of industry aggregation, allowing for the use of panel data to study the evolution of single product markets. We find that replacement of exiting firms by subsequent entry plays a primary role in generating...

Product Pricing when Demand Follows a Rule of Thumb
Matzke, Christina; Wirth, Benedikt - 2009
We analyze the strategic behavior of firms when demand is determined by a rule of thumb behavior of consumers. We assume consumer dynamics where individual consumers follow simple behavioral decision rules governed by imitation and habit as suggested in consumer research. On this basis, we...

The Experience Curve and the Market Size of Competitive Consumer Durable Markets
2011
An evolutionary model of the product life cycle is applied to derive the experience curve and the market size of (expensive) durable goods. The experience (learning) curve suggests that the real costs per unit decrease with an increasing cumulative output (Henderson's law). Based on the idea...
