Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Notre Dame, 1991.

This dissertation examines a little remarked paradox in duopoly theory: that in a Cournot (quantity strategy) or Bertrand (price strategy) duopoly model a uniform excise tax may actually increase the profit maximizing output of one duopolist. The implications of this paradox for the efficiency of a tax are explored. The possibility of a well designed excise tax causing a negative deadweight loss (efficiency improvement) is established. A policy implication of this analysis is that it is conceivable that government could raise revenue in an economy characterized by imperfect competition with no deadweight loss attributable to the tax. This result is a partial equilibrium case of the theory of the second best which roughly states: in an economy with distortions (natural monopoly, public goods, etc.) and hence an economy which is not at a Pareto efficient point, the addition of a further distortion such as an excise tax, may move the economy closer to a Pareto efficient point. This is a significant discovery in that the theory of the second best is usually demonstrated in a general equilibrium context with the interaction of demand functions in separate markets playing, a key role. This dissertation reveals a self-contained example of the theory of the second best without the complication of general equilibrium.Subjects--Topical Terms:
