Abstract

[eng] Pricing policy of the multiproduct firm. The multiproduct firm supply different goods with complex technical and commercial links between them. The subiect of this papers is to study the effects of those links on pricing policy.. Starting with the simple case of a monopoly selling and producing two goods, the relations between the products, due to demand or to the production process, is not without importance. A firm wanting profit from these relations will adopt a pricing policy which is different from the policy of two independant firms selling just one the products.. This stance which is sometimes in the customer's interest and sometimes not, means that the benefits of integration and of decentralization (even competition policy in general), cannot be studied if the composition of the firm output is ignored. [fre] Toutes les entreprises sont multiproductrices, c'est-à-dire offrent différents biens ayant entre eux des liens techniques et commerciaux complexes. L'objet de cet article est d'étudier l'effet de ces liens sur la fixation des prix. A partir du cas simple du monopole produisant et vendant deux biens, on montre que l'existence de relations entre les produits, tant au niveau de la demande qu'à celui du processus de production n'est pas sans conséquence.. L'entreprise désirant tirer profit de ces liaisons est conduite à adopter une politique de prix différente de celle de firmes indépendantes fabriquant chacune l'un des produits concernés. Ce comportement, tantôt favorable, tantôt nuisible au consommateur, suggère que les avantages de l'intégration, les justifications de la décentralisation, voire les politiques de la concurrence ne peuvent s'étudier qu'en faisant référence à la composition de l'offre des entreprises.
