We prove that all individually rational allocations are implementable in delegation games with non-separable utility. Secondly, we show that contract renegotiation and non-observable contracts have similar effects only in particular cases. We prove that all the equilibria obtained when renegotiation is excluded are implementable as renegotiation proof equilibria, provided that the side transfer technology implies a dead-weight loss increasing in the size of the transfer.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128975945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Competitors come from different countries and compete in a foreign market. We study the effect of the price setting currency chosen on expected prices, profits and exchange rate exposure as well as equilibrium choice of price setting currency. For a wide range of parameter values price setting in the importer's currency is the dominant strategy. Implications of limited exchange rate pass-through for exchange rate exposure are dicussed. The exchange rate pass-through elasticity is shown to be increasing in own-price effects. Parallels are drawn to the literature on strategic trade policy.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127233042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The difficulty presents itself in finding a way to measure performance wich meaningfully conveys how to implement the organization's strategy at local levels. I show that organizations solve this communication problem by combining performance measures in such a way that performance gains come closest to mimicking value-added as defined by the organization's strategy. I further show how organizations rebalance performance measures in response to changes in their strategies. Applications to the design of performance metrics, gaming, and divisional performance evaluation are considered. The paper also suggests several empirical ways to evaluate the practical importance of the communication role of measurement systems.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127671180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While Japanese, South Korean and Western European yards dominate the merchant shipbuilding market so far, Eastern European yards are increasingly active, in particular in low and medium complex ships. We develop a market analysis and identify the axes of competition in international civil shipbuilding. From there, we analyze the restructuring process of Eastern European yards. Polish yards have proceeded with relatively quick enterprisation, establishing strong links to domestic and international suppliers. Restructuring in Russian and Ukrainian yards is blocked by local obstacles to enterprization, leading to increasing competitiveness gaps with CEE-yards. We conclude that a science&technology policy should be demand-oriented and target only the clearly identified obstacles to enterprization.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130062877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Economic Sense of Royalty Rates 版税的经济意义

The common method used by practitioners is the \"Industry-Standard Approach\" which is based mainly on past experience. However such approach is very simplistic and fails to take into account importnat factors that effect royalty rate calculations. By using a simple financial model, the article demonstrates that expected sales volume of the end product is a key determinant of royalty rates. Higher expected sales volume enables the licensee to pay higher royalties to the licensor, while keeping its required rate of return unchanged. This point is totally overlooked by the \"Industry-Standard Approach\" and moreover it contradicts a commonly used practice to reduce the royalty rates with the increase in sales.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117325381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this paper is to describe the development of the cable television industry and analyze the institutional and economic determinants of its growth. As will be shown, the growth in the number of subscribers to cable television services was moderate from its inception until the late 1970s, enjoyed a period of substantial gain from that time until the mid-1980s, and subsequently flattened. While not inconsistent with the natural, unfettered development of nascent industries, the determinants of these periods of growth match closely with the developments in three related areas. These are (1) the seemingly boundless demand for new and varied video programming by consumers, (2) technological innovations in communication distribution technologies, including technological spillovers from other telecommunications industries, and (3) changes in the regulatory environment, or 'rules of the game,' governing both the structure of cost and the competitive environment in the industry. An ancillary goal of this paper is to also consider the implications of the existing institutional structure of the cable television industry in the context of the 'convergence' of telecommunications services mentioned above.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132622537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these issues, we develop and estimate a discrete-choice, differentiated product model of the demand for and the pricing of the complete set of cable services offered by systems in the industry. Our goal is to measure the benefits of changes in the choice set facing consumers over time. Our principal application is the construction of a quality-adjusted price index for cable television service for the period 1989 - 1995. In addition to measuring the total change in prices over this period, we decompose changes in this index to changes in the set of services offered, in the programming offered on those services, in the prices of those services, and in demographic and market characteristics. We then compare this index to that obtained by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as part of the Consumer Price Index. Failing to account for the benefits of increased quality and variety in cable television services yields an index which largely duplicates the 14.6% price increase reported by the Cable CPI between January, 1989 and July, 1995. However, incorporating consumer benefits from the addition of new services, the addition of programming to all services, and increased quality of existing programming yields an aggregate index which suggests a slight decrease of 2.2% in cable prices.","PeriodicalId":151613,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Organization & Regulation eJournal","volume":"34 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113974289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
