Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research develops a simple general equilibrium model to show mainly the following two results. (1) Entry deregulation that reduces the fixed costs of entry can increase the skill premium in wages by increasing the number of firms and decreasing firm size. However, an antitrust policy that reduces the size of cartels can decrease the skill premium by decreasing the number of firms and increasing firm size. (2) Through international trade in intermediate goods, entry deregulation and antitrust policy can have cross-country effects on the skill premium in multiple ways.
