What characteristics of a product’s local market make its withdrawal more likely? This study investigates
the importance of intrafirm “cannibalization” of a product’s demand by products manufactured by the same firm
versus interfirm competition from others’ products. While both forces impact product withdrawal, cannibalization
has a more robust and significant effect. Hedonic price regressions also reveal higher discounting of older models’
quality-adjusted prices, strengthening the argument for caution when treating list prices as proxies for transaction prices. |
