Quantity Competition With Access Fees

M. Harrison and Jeffrey Kline

Working Papers from Australian National University - Department of Economics

Abstract: We analyze an oligopoly model where firms choose both quantities and access fees. Per unit prices are determined endogenously to equate quantity demanded with quantity supplied at each firm. In a Nash equilibrium of the game played by firms, the per unit prices equal mairginal cost and access fees may or may not extract all consumer surplus.
