| Summary: | We study the monopolistic competition model with producer-retailer-consumers two-level interaction. The industry is organized according to the Dixit–Stiglitz model. The retailer is the only monopolist. A quadratic utility function represents consumer preferences. We consider the case of the retailer's leadership; namely, we study two types of behavior: with and without the free entry condition. Earlier, we obtained the result: to increase social welfare and/or consumer surplus, the government needs to subsidize (not tax!) retailers. In the presented paper, we develop these results for the situation when the producer imposes an entrance fee for retailers. |
