A Model of Oligopoly

Hernán Vallejo

No 19428, Documentos CEDE from Universidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDE

Abstract: This article builds a simple model of oligopoly and uses it to make a detailed characterization of the equilibrium prices; quantities; mark-ups; price elasticities of market demand; price elasticities of residual demand; and welfare, all in terms of the parameters of the model. This is done under five different conjectures -Collusion, Threat, Cournot, Stackelberg and Bertrand-. The results of the model are used do comparative statics.
