Equilibrium with Monopolistic Competition Sample Clauses

Equilibrium with Monopolistic Competition. The key difference between monopolistic competition and the earlier case of pure monopoly is in the consumer’s reservation utility level. The pure monopolist had only to guarantee the consumer as much utility as she could derive without consuming any medical care goods. The monopolistic competitor, on the other hand, has to guarantee the utility she could derive from the competitor’s contract. As with most models of oligopoly, this reservation utility level depends on the absence, presence, and nature of strategic behavior between competitors. However, this does not affect the marginal valuation of goods, only the level of profit earned by the firm. The division of resources among the two firms and the set of consumers have no impact on efficiency. Indeed, if type j consumers own firm j , all profits extracted are returned to the consumers from which they were taken. The result is the same equilibrium observed under pure competition. Without loss of generality, we will demonstrate this reasoning for firm A . Define q BA (W − I B , m B , h) as the amount of good B that consumer A will use when offered the good B insurance contract. Firm A then solves: I A , Am max I A + (m A − MC)E(q A ) ∫ t. 1 u A (W − m Aq A* − I A + π A , q A , h)dh ≥ ∫
