Reversal of Bertrand-Cournot Rankings in the Presence of Welfare Concerns
We revisit the comparison between Bertrand and Cournot competition in a symmetric differentiated oligopoly where each firm maximizes a weighted average of its own profit and welfare. Under very general specifications, Bertrand competition yields higher prices and profits, and lower quantities, consumer surplus, and welfare than Cournot when the weight on profit is lower than a threshold value. The threshold weight on profit (welfare) can be arbit…
The Possibility of Welfare Gains with Capital Inflows in a Small Tariff‐Ridden Economy
Capital inflows with full repatriation give rise to welfare improvement possibilities in a small tariff‐distorted economy when imperfect competition and increasing returns are allowed for in one sector of a two‐sector model. This is in contrast to the Brecher–Alejandro proposition that capital inflows with full repatriation are necessarily immiserizing for a small tariff‐ridden economy. We find that welfare gains chances are greater (a) the highe…
