Abstract

This study offers a dynamic framework which formulates stockpiling behavior of consumers as a fundamental market state. Mixed pricing strategies are endogen-ously derived from the model as well as two extreme monopoly and marginal pricing as limiting cases. This model enables us to study both spatial and temporal price be-havior using a simple dynamic programming method. The movement of price and sales can be examined at the level of the industry as well as the individual firm.
