We develop a model of inter-temporal and intra-temporal price discrimination by airlines to study the ability of different discriminatory mechanisms to remove sources of inefficiency and the associated distributional implications. To estimate the model's multi-dimensional distribution of...

The increasing use of the Internet creates a need to manage traffic while preserving equal treatment of content. We estimate demand for residential broadband, using high-frequency data from subscribers facing a three-part tariff, and use the estimates to study the welfare implications of...

We estimate demand for residential broadband using high-frequency data from subscribers facing a three-part tariff. The three-part tariff makes data usage during the billing cycle a dynamic problem; thus, generating variation in the (shadow) price of usage. We provide evidence that subscribers...

We formulate two empirical tests for collusive behavior based on the theoretical insights of Werden and Froeb [1994] and Athey, Bagwell, and Sanchirico [2004]. The first predicts that colluding firms will reduce pair-wise differences in prices within a market if demand satisfies certain...
