| Tiivistelmä: | For a Bertrand-Edgeworth framework, this paper considers whether investment in capacity may serve as a barrier to entry when firms are identical except for the first mover precommitment possibilities that the incumbent enjoys. Subgame-perfect Nash equilibria are examined for a three- stage non-competitive game in which the incumbent sets a capacity level, the potential entrant choses its capacity, and then firms set prices using mixed strategies. For some parameter values, entry is blockaded, positive profits for the entrant are precluded. |
