R&D subsidies, spillovers and privatization in mixed markets
Moltó, Maria José Gil; Poyago-Theotoky, Joanna; … - 2010
We examine the use of subsidies to R&D in a mixed and a private duopoly market. We show that the socially optimal R&D subsidy is increasing in the degree of spillovers but it is lower in the private duopoly. The optimal R&D subsidy leads to an increase in total R&D and production, however, it...

Such intrapersonal task complementarities limit the division … of labour as complementary tasks can only be unbundled at a cost (productivity loss). To illustrate this point, we apply …
