This paper aims to show that delay matters in continuous- and discrete-time framework. It constructs a simple dynamic model of a boundedly rational monopoly. First the existence of the unique equilibrium state is proved under general price and cost function forms. Conditions are derived for its...

This paper discusses the delay dynamics of monopoly with discrete timescales. It is assumed that a monopoly has delayed and limited information on demand. It is also assumed that the firm wants to react to an average of past data instead of reacting to sudden market changes and this average is...
