摘要 Abstract of the paper |
We present a simple Cournot model for
determining the optimal discriminatory tariff rates under the cases of
benevolent government, domestic ownership, and opportunism. The main finding
of this paper are as follows. First, under the benevolent government, the
optimal tariff can be negative. The optimal tariff difference is half of the
marginal cost difference if the consumer surplus oriented weight is not very
large, and it is independent of the weight. Second, the domestic government
may impose lower tariff to the more efficient firm when the domestic investor
partially owns the more efficient firm. Third, under unobservable contract,
the optimal tariffs are lower than those under observable contract, and the
optimal tariff difference is two thirds of the marginal cost difference. |
