| Abstract: | What role does technological progress have in explaining quality deteriorating? In a model with variable cost of quality and heterogeneous consumers there is a possibility of quality reductions when new technology makes larger scale production feasible. The effect on quality depends on the number of varieties produced by the monopolist. |
