Full Discretion is Inevitable

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article studies a dynamic project‐selection game between a Principal and an Agent with conflicting interests. Only the Agent knows what projects are feasible. In each period before a project is selected, the Principal imposes a restriction set. The Agent can select any feasible project within this set, thereby ending the game.

Preemptive Entry and Technology Diffusion: The Market for Drive‐In Theaters

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article studies entry preemption in new industries. We first test a key prediction of dynamic entry games: Entry preemption is most relevant in intermediate‐sized markets, where firms face highest uncertainty about future entry. Using US drive‐in theater market (1945–1957) data, we find robust evidence for this non‐monotonic relationship ...

ABSTRACT Unobserved objective output quality complicates the analysis of firm productivity and demand because higher‐quality products entail higher costs but offer greater consumption benefits. Using a panel of firms with output quality data, we decompose quantity‐based productivity into fundamental productivity and the costs of quality, and separate ...

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the presence of adverse selection, mergers can increase welfare through a reduction in inefficient sorting. I characterize the sorting externality internalized between merging firms in a tractable discrete choice model. Mergers benefit consumers when the firms are small, willingness to pay is moderately increasing in cost, and consumer ...
