Both entry and exit rates were found to be systematically dependent on the stage of market development. Survival rates were found to depend on both the stage of development and on the individual attributes of firms. A thorough inventory of companies was developed.

Strategic pricing of new pharmaceuticals
Article Abstract:
The price level of a new pharmaceutical depends on its innovativeness and uniqueness. A pharmaceutical company has a tendency to adopt a price that is three to four times higher than its competitors when the product to be introduced is highly innovative. On the other hand, a pharmaceutical is most likely to be priced equally with its competitors when its actions are comparable with other products.
