摘要
This paper characterizes and enumerates the possible solution structures in nonlinear pricing problem when the number of buyer types is given. It is shown that the single-crossing property, which is a standard assumption in the literature, reduces the complexity of solving the problem dramatically. The number of possible solution structures is important when the pricing problem is solved under limited information.
