We demonstrate that cost pass-through can be used to inform demand calibration, potentially eliminating the need for … data on margins, diversion, or both. We derive the relationship between cost pass-through and consumer demand using a … general oligopoly model of Nash-Bertrand competition and develop specific results for four demand systems: linear demand …
