Nonlinear pricing and price cap regulation

Article Abstract:

Nonlinear pricing practices such as two-part pricing are typically used in industries with more allocative efficiency since they can cover the large fixed costs characterizing these industries. In particular, utility companies beset by the difficulties of resale and arbitrage between consumers practice nonlinear pricing. Profit-maximizing nonlinear pricing by a firm that is subject to price cap regulation is analyzed.
