摘要:I develop a two-period model of entry deterrence with endogenous market demands such that the consumer's expectation about the future market structure is fulfilled in equilibrium. I find that both expectations (duopoly and monopoly) are fulfilled in the (incumbent's) price-setting game, while there is a unique equilibrium in the quantity-setting game. I also find that ''quantity'' is more entry-deterring than ''price'' in the sense that the maximum value of the entry cost that allows entry in ...

We are interested in equilibrium behavior when the firms will collusively arrange a trigger strategy equilibrium in prices, and will select their locations knowing that a particular such trigger strategy price equilibrium will ensue. Specifically, w...
