Research Abstract |
Say it is known that a monopoly firm produces a durable goad with increasing marginal costs, At what price will she sell the good to consumers? Coase (1972) conjectures with a static model that the price (and the total stock of the good owned by consumers) will move towards a competitive level rather than towards a monopolistic one unless she reduces the durability of the good. In this report, we would like to show with a dynamic model of a so-called LQ (linear quadratic) control problem, in which the model has a system of 2 linear differential equations of the price and stock and a quadratic evaluation functional of her profit, that what determines the Coase s conjecture and how she should control a rate of output of the good. We employ the Reid s method in order to resolve a matrix differential equation of Riccati type and obtain the firm s optimal control law, which does not depend upon initial states of the price and stock, for her profit maximization problem of the durable good.
