Tarification binomiale du monopsone

Abstract

In relation with the current balance of power between producers and retailing concerns in France, the text at hand focuses on the general properties of two-part tariffs set by a monopsony, especially when discrimination is ruled out. This problem is not similar to the monopoly case, since a buyer controls more variables (quantities) than a seller. It is shown that for more than two producers, non discriminating two-part tariffs do not preclude residual profits for some of them. In some instances the buyer keeps discretionary power, arbitrarily controlling the residual profits of some subsets of suppliers.
