Price Transmission in Vertical Markets: A Comment and an Extension

Prof. Hari K Nagarajan, Raghbendra Jha
1998
Working Paper No
119
Body

This paper examines the impact of dynamic information acquisition by retailers, on the degree of asymmetric price transmission in vertical markets. We propose a generalization of the extant models of asymmetric price transmission, by endogenising the process of dynamic information acquisition. It is found that, this has a significant impact on the degree of asymmetry in the process of price transmission. A test of the functional form by using the restricted version of the model rejects the restricted model. JEL Classification: C32, D43, Q13, Q18
