Dynamic Pricing With Recommendation and Consumer Feedback

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A long‐lived seller sells a new product of unknown value by offering prices and recommendations to short‐lived consumers in continuous time. The seller receives consumer feedback about the product at a rate that increases with the instantaneous sales volume.

Why Is Exclusivity in Broadcasting Rights Prevalent and Why Does Simple Regulation Fail?

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pay‐TV firms compete both downstream to attract viewers and upstream to acquire broadcasting rights. Because profits inherited from downstream competition satisfy a convexity property, allocating rights to the dominant firm maximizes the industry profit.

Optimal Refund Mechanism With Consumer Learning

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article studies the optimal refund mechanism when an uninformed buyer learns about their valuation over time. We consider various refund mechanisms including simple return policies (no returns or free returns), and stochastic return policies, which allow the buyer to keep the product with some probability upon receiving a refund.

Redistribution Through Efficiency: Theory and Evidence from Three Electricity Markets

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using micro‐data on over 160 million bids to buy and sell from three major electricity markets, we study efficiency improvements resulting from technologies such as storage. Consumer benefits arise not from stabilized prices but from changes in general price levels.

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.
