Import Quotas And Entry Deterrence, Neil Campbell May 2000

Import Quotas And Entry Deterrence, Neil Campbell

Neil Campbell

Using a simple version of the Milgrom and Roberts entry deterrence model, it is shown that adjusting a quota so that a greater volume of imports is allowed, can facilitate entry into the domestic industry. That is, the easing of a quota, can cause the domestic incumbent to shift from deterring entry to accommodating entry.

Measuring Market Power In Bilateral Oligopoly: The Wholesale Market For Beef, John Schroeter, Azzeddine Azzam, Mingxia Zhang Dec 1999

Measuring Market Power In Bilateral Oligopoly: The Wholesale Market For Beef, John Schroeter, Azzeddine Azzam, Mingxia Zhang

Azzeddine Azzam

Econometric methods for assessing the degree of market power typically rely on a maintained hypothesis of price-taking behavior on one side of the market or the other. In the analysis of bilateral oligopoly, however, one would like to leave open the question of whether buyers or sellers (or both) behave competitively while allowing for the possible exercise of market power on either side. In this paper, we address the problem of measuring market power in bilateral oligopoly. This requires that we first distinguish among three candidate equilibrium concepts: bilateral price-taking, seller price-taking, and buyer price-taking. Choosing among them comes down …

Import Competition And Worker Productivity In Unionized Firms, Neil Campbell, Neil Vousden Dec 1999

Import Competition And Worker Productivity In Unionized Firms, Neil Campbell, Neil Vousden

Neil Campbell

This paper analyzes the effects of trade and labor market liberalization on wages and worker productivity/effort in a domestic unionized firm with firm-union bargaining over wages and effort. It is shown that both types of liberalization will induce a 'cold shower effect' (a rise in effort) if the union's objective function is more heavily weighted towards employment. However, the welfare effects of the two policies can differ markedly. The paper also identifies a separate productivity cost of production associated with the distortionary effect of protection on worker effort.
