Tiivistelmä: | This paper documents the variation in dealer discounts for new cars using transactions price data from the Consumer Expenditure Survey. Consumer-specific characteristics fail to explain dealer discounts, whereas model, market-specific, and purchase transaction variables do explain them. The results contradict earlier findings of race and gender discrimination based on controlled experiment. This contradiction is reconciled by examining the higher moments of the empirical discount distribution. |
