Firms sometimes agree to limit the discounts they offer a class of customers, i.e., they collude on the price differences across consumer classes. Why?

Applied Economics Letters, 2002Bomberger and Makinen reported in 1993 that the significant positive relationship between relative price variability and the rate of inflation, documented by Parks in 1978 and by others, disappears when the oil-shock years 1974 and 1980 are excluded from the sample.

This axiom requires that if prices of all goods and services rise more in country A than in country B, then the price index for A must exceed that for B. Although monotonicity in price relatives seems fundamental, all the main weighted price index formulae ...
