摘要

Abstract of the paper

This paper introduces the impact of online competition to analysis of the urban con
gfiuration of a small open city which was fi
rst developed by Alonso (1964), Mills (1967), and Muth (1969) (AMM hereafter). In comparison to a revised AMM model in Lai and Tsai (2008) which assumed a monopoly vendor, the present paper's online entry brings competition, eventually causes price reduction, city expansion, and asymmetrically ascending land rent, and makes the incumbent vendor relocate to a more remote city boundary. When the disadvantage of online purchasing is not large, the urban con
figuration demonstrates that most residents purchase online, and only the residents living near the physical vendor make shopping trips. Finally, the bene
t of city expansion from online competition eventually goes to the absentee landowners by way of the raised land rents.
