Abstract
This paper examines monopoly pricing and competitive pricing of network goods with price discrimination, for heterogeneous consumer preferences. Based on the monopolist model for continuous-type consumers, we solve the instantaneous competing pricing problem and analyze the equilibrium market structure with and without time lag of discriminatory price adjustment. When time lag exists and when network externalities are of sufficient magnititude, there exists multi-period problem. So it sheds lights on dynamic pricing strategies for two competing networks with price discrimination and uniform price respectively.
We derive the optimal dynamic competing pricing strategies for both finite periods and infinite periods, and conclude that price discrimination promotes efficiency by reducing the extent of excess inertia. Incomplete information of entrant’s pricing behavior and large network externalities are necessary for the dynamic problem to occur. However, even in the static framework, the pricing strategies with network effects are different from those without externalities because of the requirement of rational expectations. The designation methods of dynamic price discrimination are different in each period, while the dynamic uniform price’s formation is always the same in any period and on any circumstance except for the closure period in infinite period case. The larger the network externalities, the higher prices in each period.
