报告题目:Optimal Concession Contracts for Landlord Port Authorities Pursuing Different Goals
内容摘要:This paper investigates how landlord port authorities should offer concession contracts to terminal operators under their different goals. First, we presume that port authorities aim to maximize the weighted sum of fee revenue and throughout benefit, i.e., a generalization of Chen and Liu (2014, 2015). Employing a two-stage game, we discover that the optimal concession contract can be any of the fixed-fee, the unit-fee, and the two-part tariff schemes; depending on the weights assigned to fee revenue and throughput benefit, the marginal costs of terminal operators, the marginal benefits of throughput, and the service differentiation degrees of the operators. The outcomes of Chen and Liu (2014, 2015) are special cases of ours. Second, if port authorities aim to maximize the social welfare, we find that subsidizing terminal operators, instead of charging them, is the authorities’ best choice.
