Article Abstract:

A study has been conducted to develop an entry model of professional sports markets incorporating this competition for star athletes which endogenizes the cost of quality.

In professional sports, competition for stars determines the cost of hiring a star athlete, and the marginal cost of improving quality become endogenous.
