Market size and vertical structure in the rail way industry

Matsushima, Noriaki; Mizutani, Fumitoshi - 2011

We provide a theoretical framework to discuss the relation between market size and vertical structure in the railway industry. The framework is based on a simple downstream monopoly model with two input suppliers, labor forces and the rail infrastructure firm. The operation of the downstream...

Product differentiation and entry timing in a continuous-time spatial competition model with vertical relations

Ebina, Takeshi; Matsushima, Noriaki - 2017

We study the entry timing and location decisions of two exclusive buyer-supplier relationships in a continuous …-time spatial competition model. In each relationship, the firms determine their entry timing and location, and negotiate a … equilibrium location of the leader will be closer to the center, inducing a delay in entry by the second entrant (called the …

How do market structures affect decisions on vertical integration/separation

Matsushima, Noriaki; Mizuno, Tomomichi - 2010

We provide a simple model to investigate decisions on vertical integration/separation. The key feature of this model is that more than one input is required for the final products of the local downstream monopolists. Depending on their cost structure, downstream firms' decisions on vertical...

On the Benefits of Contractual Inefficiency in Quality-Differentiated Markets

Bacchiega, Emanuele - 2013

Contractual inefficiencies within supply chains increase an input price above its marginal cost, therefore they are considered detrimental to consumer surplus. We argue that such inefficiencies may be beneficial to consumers in quality-differentiated markets where the "finiteness property"...

Vertical relations and number of channels in quality-differentiated markets

Bacchiega, Emanuele; Bonroy, Olivier - 2012

Double marginalization causes inefficiencies in vertical markets. This paper argues that such inefficiencies may be beneficial to final consumers in markets producing vertically differentiated goods. The rationale behind this result is that enhancing efficiency in high-quality supply chains...

Confidence, pessimism and their impact on product differentiation in a hotelling model with demand location uncertainty

Kauffeldt, Florian; Wiesenfarth, Boris Roland - 2014

We analyze a Hotelling location-then-price duopoly game under demand uncertainty with uniformly distributed consumers …
