Endogenous market structure and the cooperative firm

Brent Hueth () and GianCarlo Moschini

ISU General Staff Papers from Iowa State University, Department of Economics

Abstract: When the threat of entry by followers includes cooperative firms, the maximum fixed cost that a profit maximizing leader can endure is endogenous. The aggressive strategy required for entry-deterrence curtails the leader’s expected profit and can discourage its initial entry. In such circumstances a cooperative firm may yet be viable, despite having a cost handicap and no first-mover advantage
