dc.description.abstract | The potential gains to producers from the cartelization of the world
petroleum, copper, and bauxite markets are calculated under the
assumption of optimal dynamic monopoly pricing of an exhaustible
resource. Small quantitative models for the markets for each resource
are developed that account for short-term lag adjustments in demand
and supply as well as long-term resource depletion. Potential gains
from the cartelization of each resource are measured by calculating
optimal price trajectories under competition and under cartelization,
and comparing the sums of discounted profits resulting from each. | en |
