| Tiivistelmä: | This paper generalizes Dansby-Willig's industry performance gradient index so as to explicitly relate the maximal feasible welfare improvement rate in imperfectly competitive markets with the number of firms perceiving market power and the industry-wide distribution of marginal costs. Two examples of the proposed index are fully explored to obtain two results: (i) the greater number of oligopolistically behaving firms lowers but (ii) the greater variance of the marginal-cost distribution over the industry increases the maximal feasible rate of welfare improvement. |
