Optimal Pricing In The Presence Of Experience Effects, Frank H. Clarke, M. N. Darrough, John Heineke

Economics

In this paper we analyze the problem of optimal intertemporal pricing for a monopolist when current (and past) output affect future cost and/or demand conditions through "experience" in production and/or in consumption. Learning by doing, the experience curve, contagion, habit formation, bandwagon, and snob effects are all examples of terminologies used to describe such situations. We call these "experience effects" for convenience and explore profit-maximizing pricing behavior when such effects exist

How Fast Should We Graze The Global Commons?, William D. Nordhaus

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Unlike the vast preponderance of planets, earth has been bequeathed a hospitable environment in which to thrive. Up to now, man’s activities have affected this environment negligibly. Scientists are becoming convinced, however, that release of carbon dioxide (CO2) from combustion of fossil fuels will lead to a significant modification of the global climate (see Woodwell). How should we think about such a destruction of our heritage? Should it be treated as anathema, like bondage? Or should the pace and extent of use of our global commons be subject to the same reasoned balancing of costs and benefits as other economic …

Monetary Factors And The Business Cycles, Nattasin Chongsanguan

Masters Theses

The emphasis in the study of economic fluctuations has been placed upon the disequilibrium nature of the growth process with private investment playing such a key role in generating oscillatory behavior. The view taken in this paper, however, is that fluctuations in aggregate economic activity are equilibrium phenomena. Expansionary and contractionary processes are considered as continuous adjustments along an equilibrium path through time.

The Hawtrey-Hicks monetary hypothesis is used in this study to explain irregular fluctuations in economic activity. Monetarist propositions together with rational expectations and dual-decision hypotheses are then drawn from the Hawtrey-Hicks analysis for the testing purposes. Quarterly …
