Minimum Quality Standards in Hedonic Markets with Environmental Externalities
Abstract We investigate the introduction of a minimum quality standard (MQS) in a vertically differentiated duopoly with an environmental externality. We establish that the MQS bites only if the hedonic component of consumer preferences is sufficiently strong. Then, we illustrate an underlying trade-off between the beneficial effects of quality enhancement on prices and the associated undesirable increase in the environmental externality.
