| Abstract: | This paper provides the first systematic evidence on how franchisors adjust their royalty rates and franchise fees as they gain franchising experience. This evidence comes from a unique panel data set that the authors assembled on these monetary contract terms for about 1,000 franchisors each year for the 1980-92 period. The authors find that there is much persistence, over time, in franchise contract terms within firms. |
