Cournot competition with heterogenous firms, welfare and misallocation

De Monte, Enrico; Koebel, Bertrand M. - 2025

This paper characterizes the short- and long-run Cournot equilibrium with heterogeneous firms and stochastic technological change. In our model, firms have different technologies with heterogeneous fixed and variable costs and various degrees of markups. In a framework with homogeneous firms,...

Entry and competition in freight transport: the case of a prospective transalpine rail link between France and Italy

Prady, Delphine; Ullrich, Hannes - 2010

We analyze the expected effects of building a rail tunnel between Lyon and Turin on i) the market shares of the established and the new suppliers, and ii) consumer surplus. The prospective project consists of a 53km rail tunnel providing freight shippers with a new alpine path. We calibrate an...

Consumer welfare and unobserved heterogeneity in discrete choice models: The value of alpine road tunnels

Cerquera Dussán, Daniel; Ullrich, Hannes - 2010

We investigate the sensitivity of consumer surplus estimates to parametric assumptions on individual preference heterogeneity in a discrete choice framework. We compare results from a parametric random coefficients logit model and a recently proposed nonparametric sieve estimator. In particular,...

Beyond monetary barriers to electric vehicle adoption: Evidence from observed usage of private and shared cars

Habla, Wolfgang; Huwe, Vera; Kesternich, Martin - 2020

We use car-level micro data to provide empirical evidence on the usage of conventional and electric vehicles (EVs) in private and car sharing fleets in Germany. We shed light on both monetary and non-monetary barriers to EV adoption and usage by exploiting the feature that variable costs are...
