Abstract

In this chapter we look at the monopolistic screening model, which is a particular example of the non-linear pricing model. Non-linear tariffs include railroad and electricity schedules and rental rates for durable goods and space. Another application of these models is to devise an optimal compensation scheme for a firm’s manager. The major justification for non-linear pricing is the existence of private information on the side of consumers.
