Proposition 1 definition

Proposition 1 means City of SeaTac Proposition 1, codified at Ch. 7.45 SMC.
Proposition 1. With quantity competition and uncertain firm specific cost or demand intercept, a firm unilaterally chooses to share information if and only if B ≤ δ2(8−δ2)/12. A firm’s profit is greater when both share information than when neither share if and only if B ≤ δ2(12−δ2)/3(4+δ2). Proof: From (1) and (2), firm a’s expected profit when they both do not share less its expected profit when only firm a shares, is increasing in B, and equals zero at B = δ2(8−δ2)/12. From (3) and (4), the same is true for firm a’s expected profit when only it does not share less its expected profit when they both share. For the second part, from (2) and (3), firm a’s expected profit when they both do not share less its expected profit when they both share, is increasing in B and equals at B = δ2(12−δ2)/3(4+δ2).// 14 There are two effects that arise from a firm sharing its information. On one hand, the union can exploit the information to the firm’s detriment. On the other hand, the information being shared with the rival creates a benefit. In the environment here, the gain from sharing is greater than the loss from the union learning, if the union is sufficiently weak or the products are sufficiently undifferentiated. It is interesting to contrast these results to those found in Li (2002) who assumes that the union has all of the pricing power and the products are perfect substitutes (equivalent to B = 1 and δ=1). In contrast to the result here, Xx (2002) finds that the firm’s dominant strategy is to share information and profits are greater if all firms share information. The difference arises because here the union sets different wages, while in Li (2002) a uniform price is considered.15 By setting a differential wage the extent to which the union can exploit the information is enhanced sufficiently to change the results found in Li. Comparison of the pricing power (B) needed for joint profits to increase from information sharing (δ2(12−δ2)/3(4+δ2)) to that needed for an individual firm to unilaterally share information (δ2(8−δ2)/12), reveals that there are levels of pricing power such that there is a prisoner’s dilemma. Interestingly, this only arises if the pricing power is more evenly divided.
Proposition 1 means AB 1471, (2014), as codified in California Water Codes section 79701 et seq.
