What do phone rates, frequent flyer programs, and railroad tariffs all have in common? They are all examples of nonlinear pricing. Pricing is nonlinear when it is not strictly proportional to the quantity purchased. The Electric Power Research Institute has commissioned Robert Wilson to review the various facets of nonlinear pricing. The work starts with a general non-mathematical discussion, followed by a more technical presentation intended for readers with a fairly advanced background. Thorough and detailed, this study has ample examples of case studies from a variety of industries.

I develop a multiproduct nonlinear pricing model where a firm sells both discrete and continuous goods/services to consumers with multidimensional heterogeneity. I derive the optimal selling mechanism and provide primitive conditions under which different bundling strategies arise. Exploiting the optimality conditions of both the firm and the consumer, I show that the model structure is nonparametrically identified and propose a three-step semiparametric estimation procedure. An application to China Telecom data shows that mixed bundling is beneficial to both the firm and the consumer relative to component pricing.

A central issue in price theory is how to set prices for services that require the seller to incur a setup cost. In this paper we adopt a novel approach using nonlinear pricing, and address the special case of a monopoly. Restrictive assumptions are imposed on the cost and demand functions, but these enable a complete characterization of the optimal pricing policy. The problem we address is formally one of nonlinear pricing for a multiproduct monopoly, which has been studied by Mirman and Sibley 1980. However, their analysis does not recognize the crucial role of the discontinuity in the cost function and its ramifications for the optimal pricing policy. (Author).

In "continuous choice" settings, consumers decide not only on whether to purchase a product, but also on how much to purchase. As a result, firms should optimize a full price schedule rather than a single price point. This paper provides a methodology to empirically estimate the optimal schedule under multi-dimensional consumer heterogeneity. We apply our method to novel data from an educational-services firm that contains purchase-size information not only for deals that materialized, but also for potential deals that eventually failed. We show that the optimal second-degree price discrimination (i.e., optimal nonlinear tariff) improves the firm's profit upon linear pricing by about 7.9%. That said, this second-degree price discrimination scheme only recovers 7.4% of the gap between the profitability of linear pricing (i.e., no price discrimination) and that of infeasible first degree price discrimination. We also conduct several further counterfactual analyses (i) comparing the role of demand- v.s. cost-side factors in shaping the optimal price schedule, (ii) examining third-degree price discrimination, and (iii) empirically quantifying the magnitude by which incentive-compatibility constraints impact the optimal pricing and profits.
