The Firm-Value Risk Model combines the technology of actuarial optimal dividends models with insights regarding financial frictions from financial economics, especially as they apply to risk transfer in (re)insurance firms. This paper illustrates, by numerical solution of a set of case studies, how certain stylized facts about (re)insurer value emerge ...

The Dominant Firm Model Revisited
Review of Industrial Organization, 2000This paper extends the standard Forchheimer dominant firm model by making more explicit shifts in the fringe supply when the market price set the dominant firm deviate from its limit price. It demonstrated how, when a dominant firm engages in short-run profit maximization, the market price it sets in the long run will equal its limit price and that, in

In this paper we utilize traditional microeconomic theory and elementary queuing theory to develop a computer simulation model of a single-product, multi-process firm. One of our objectives is to demonstrate that the body of economic theory known as the “theory of the firm” may be used to provide a convenient frame of reference in applying some of the

A micro-simulation model of firms: Applications of concepts of the demography of the firm [PDF]
Papers in Regional Science, 2000 Recently, there is an increasing demand in spatial planning for mod-els based on the demographic concepts of birth and death of firms. This articledescribes the structure of a spatial demographic simulation model of firms, andits application within The Netherlands.

Modeling the governance of cooperative firms
Computational and Mathematical Organization Theory, 2016Most studies of cooperative firms have been conducted using neoclassically inspired economic models that consider the characteristics and behavior of capitalist companies and their owners, thus failing to accommodate the wide range of criteria that motivate the creation of cooperative firms.

Modeling firms in the global economy
Theory and Society, 2009I examine the apparent deverticalization of firms in the world economy and their adoption of relational contracting and modularization, necessitated by rapid product change, cheap and rapid transport, and new technologies. I argue that relational contracting is superseded by modularization when possible in the interest of more control over suppliers ...

While recently some significant theoretical contributions have been made in the economics of crime, punishment and courts by Gary Becker [3], Issac Ehrlich [9], William Landes [16] and Gordon Tullock [21], little theoretical analysis has been done on the legal service delivery system of the private sector.1 The present study hopes to fill part of this ...

Economics of Planning, 1970
The Liberman reforms of 1962 modify the above model somewhat, though they do not change it in any fundamental way. The problem of systematic misinformation is attacked by opting for a bonus based not on profit achieved but rather, on an average of the profit achieved and the planned profit.
