Deterministic heterogeneity in tastes and product differentiation in the K-logit model

Author

Listed:
  • Rajaonarison, Dominique

Abstract

In this paper we use the K-deformed multinomial logit model to study product differentiation. The focus is on the economic interpretation of the deformation parameter which is the key parameter of this model. Then we establish the relationship between this parameter and probability choice, price elasticity and markup.
