@article{oai:nagoya.repo.nii.ac.jp:00008980, author = {加藤, 浩 and KATO, Hiroshi}, issue = {4}, journal = {経済科学}, month = {Mar}, note = {This paper criticizes the conventional wisdom that a second-hand market may weaken the incentive for durable-goods monopolist to develop the new products that is improved in quality. The analysis will be undertaken by distinguishing the products according to its value of second-use. In the case of high value of second-use (such as cars and PCs), the second-hand market may assure socially desirable investment in the development of the new products for wide range of quality change. This is because a second-hand market can help the monopolist screen the demand of consumers with higher valuation for the products and extract-perfectly consumers’ surplus from the new product introduction. On the other hand, if the products don’t possess the value of second-use (such as video games, books and music CDs), the profitability of the sales of the new products is not affected by the second-hand market, neither is the investment in the development of these products.}, pages = {125--136}, title = {耐久財独占における新製品開発投資}, volume = {51}, year = {2004} }
