Forecasting telecommunication service subscribers in substitutive and competitive environments

Understanding the Determinants of Consumers' Switching Intentions in a Standards War
Tung-Ching Lin,Shiu-Li Huang +1 more
TL;DR: Findings show that the pull factor of relative advantage and the push factors of low satisfaction and disconfirmation positively influence a consumer's intention to switch technology products and the mooring factors of inertia, switching cost, and network effect negatively influence switching intentions.

Monopoly, quality, and regulation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that under regimes of monopoly and monopolistic competition, product characteristics (which are often endogenous variables) are not usually optimally set under the pressure of market forces, and that regulation is also beset with difficulties when price and quality are decision variables.

Critical Mass and Tariff Structure in Electronic Communications Markets
Shmuel S. Oren,Stephen A. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an economic model that determines both the required critical mass size for startup and the ultimate expansion level of such a system and evaluated the effects of different pricing structures for the service under the assumption that users maximize benefits minus cost and a monopoly supplier maximizes profit.

Tax Analysis in an Oligopoly Model
Michael L. Katz,Harvey S. Rosen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the conjectural variations model of oligopoly to analyze the way in which the incidence of a tax depends upon the pattern of firm interaction and show that the errors that arise in excess burden calculations when incorrect assumptions on market structure are made.
