摘要
Tariff discrimination by a regulated monopolist is sometimes politically unfeasible on distributional grounds. However, under a simple regulatory constraint, discriminatory two-part tariffs provide a Pareto improvement. This suggests an implementable reform of the uniform tariff used in some public utilities.
