摘要：

We consider a mixed market where a state-owned firm competes with private firms. If the number of firms is exogenous, then a deterioration of the efficiency of the state-owned firm might improve social welfare. This situation occurs when the state-owned firm is inefficient and private firms are efficient. However, if the number of firms is endogenous, then a deterioration of the efficiency of the state-owned firm must reduce social welfare.
