摘要: |
This dissertation studies price-setting behavior in the retail gasoline industry. The main questions addressed are: How important is a retail station’s brand and proximity to competitors when retail stations set price? How do retailers adjust their pricing when they cater to consumers who are less aware of competing options or have less discretion over where they purchase gasoline? These questions are explored in two separate analyses using a unique datasets containing retail pricing behavior of stations in California and in 24 different metropolitan areas. |
