In this paper, we present a model in which the performing arts are modelled as congestible public goods. In accordance with empirical evidence, the production of seat capacity is assumed to be subject to fixed costs. We estimate the parameters of the model's demand and cost functions using...

We explore the properties of various types of public and private pricing on acongested road network with heterogeneous users and allowing for elasticdemand. Heterogeneity is represented by a continuum of values of time. Thenetwork consists of both serial and parallel links, which allows us to...

In this paper we study how congestion and residential movingbehaviour are interrelated using a two-region job search …. This choice affects the external costs ofcommuting due to congestion. The welfare maximizing road tax is derived ….We demonstrate that road pricing may not only reduce congestion but alsoincrease total residential moving costs in the economy. One …

This holds … regardless of the leader's internalization of congestion in the unregulated equilibrium, and regardless of the assumed demand …

We analyse the behaviour of market participants in a multi-modal commuter network where roads are not priced, but public transport has a usage fee, which is set while taking the effects on the roads into account. In particular, we analyse the difference between markets with a monopolistic public...
