Abstract
In this paper, market and cost data from the titanium dioxide industry are used to analyze firm limit pricing. One firm in that industry had a cost-reducing technological advantage over all others. By strategically expanding its own capacity, this firm could have established an equilibrium market price – or limit price – that would have prevented its rivals from expanding. The method of achieving this goal and the method’s feasibility are discussed.
