Fairness is intuitive

Research output: Working paperResearchpeer-review

Consumers are assumed to be unable to discriminate between two goods of differing qualities provided that the qualities are close enough. It is shown that in a vertically differentiated duopoly this results in multiple equilibria. Demand for each firm's good is reduced. Firms' profits may be higher or lower depending on which equilibrium is selected.
