Unrestricted geometric distance functions and the Geometric Young productivity index: An analysis of Indian manufacturing
Vertical Integration Strategy
Vertical integration strategy is concerned with the vertical scope of the firm and involves decisions regarding which stages of the vertical chain should be outsourced and which should remain within the organizational boundaries of a firm. This is often referred to as the “make versus buy” decision. It also involves decisions on the type and formality of the vertical arrangements. The decision of whether or not to vertically integrate has been mo…
Co‐Opetition
In their seminal work, develop the concept of co‐opetition within the context of game theory. The idea of co‐opetition recognizes that business games call for co‐operation and competition at the same time. There are simultaneous win–win and win–lose elements that exist in a firm's relationships with customers, suppliers, competitors, and complementors. When it comes to making the market (i.e., creating the profit pie) co‐operation is called for, …
Double Monopoly Markup
When manufacturing and distribution are undertaken by two successive monopolies, each firm, in its attempt to maximize its own profits, charges a price that contains a monopoly markup over its own marginal cost. This gives rise to the problem of double monopoly markup (also known as double marginalization). The overall result is higher prices for consumers, lower quantity sold, and lower consumer surplus for consumers. Further, the joint profit o…
Winner's Curse
In common value auctions, the true value of the item for purchase is the same to all bidders. However, the parties who are competing to purchase the item are unaware of the true value at the time of bidding. Since the bidder with the highest estimated value (and, therefore, the highest bid price) wins the auction, the bidder with the highest overestimate of the true value is generally the winner. This is what leads to the winner's curse, as the w…
Vertical Integration
Vertical integration refers to the process of management control across the stages of the vertical chain. The decision of a firm to perform an activity from another stage of the vertical chain in‐house (i.e., vertically integrate), rather than use market exchange is called the make versus buy decision. This decision is influenced by factors such as economies of scale, transaction costs, asset specificity, coordination problems, and demand conditi…
Data Envelopment Analysis
The method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was introduced in the Management Science/Operations Research literature by Charnes, Cooper, and Rhodes. The method can be utilized to measure the efficiency of a decision making unit (DMU), such as a firm, relative to other firms that produce the same outputs. The intellectual roots of DEA can be traced back to the nonparametric analysis of production economics due to Debreu and Farrell, and has its f…
Decomposition of the Fisher Ideal Index of Productivity: A Non-Parametric Dual Analysis of US Airlines Data
In this paper, we offer a non-parametric method of decomposing the Fisher Ideal index of productivity into individual factors measuring: (i) technical efficiency change, (ii) allocative efficiency change, (iii) shift in the cost function, (iv) scale economies due to output change, and (v) an adjustment factor reflecting change in the output attributes. Cross section data from the US airline industry for the years 1983 and 1984 are utilised in an …
