Abstract

The authors demonstrate how to estimate a model of oligopoly pricing when products are multidimensionally differentiated. They provide an empirical counterpart to recent theoretical work on product differentiation. Using specifications informed by economic theory, the authors estimate price-cost margins for products differentiated in many dimensions. Copyright 1995 by The Review of Economic Studies Limited.
