Bundling as a Facilitating Device: A Reinterpretation of Leverage Theory

Author

Abstract

Tying-good monopolists that extract full consumer surplus from independent sales of their tying good may, nevertheless, choose to bundle in order to induce a favorable response by their tied-market rivals. In particular, bundling may facilitate supracompetitive prices for the tied good. Copyright 1991 by The London School of Economics and Political Science.
