We study how a commercial firm competes with a free open source product. The market consists of two customer segments with different preferences and is characterized by positive network effects. The commercial firm makes product and pricing decisions to maximize its profit. The open source developers make product decisions to maximize the weighted sum of the segments' consumer surplus, in addition to their intrinsic motivation. The more importance open source developers attach to consumer surplus, the more effort they put into developing software features. Even if consumers do not end up adopting the open source product, it can act as a credible threat to the commercial firm, forcing the firm to lower its prices. If the open source developers' intrinsic motivation is high enough, they w...

The current economic climate has greatly helped to create and sustain an environment conducive to fraudulent financial reporting. As part of its emphasis on enforcement and investor protection, the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) has reported a significant increase in 2010 in both the number and the size of fraud cases. Now, provisions in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, eg, Title IX -- Investor Protection and Securities Reform Act of 2010, and new incentives contained in amendments to the US Federal Sentencing Guidelines are likely to increase the motivation for whistleblowing activities and subsequent assertions of fraud. The most important whistleblower motivator is the authority granted to the SEC for making bounty payments to whistleblowers....

OAKLAND, Calif., May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. nonprofit Reclamation Nation and the award-winning U.K. up-cycler Elvis & Kresse have announced a relationship designed to convert as many reclaimed and recycled materials as possible into "green chic" consumer products. The motivation for the relationship stems from both organizations' common concerns for keeping waste out of landfills. Reclamation Nation's CEO, Kevin Riley, has been admiring Elvis & Kresse's philosophy and high design standards from afar while awaiting final approval from the IRS to proceed. "I've wanted to work with Elvis & Kresse from the moment I was aware of them and what they did," said Riley. "Every one of their pieces--and I hesitate to call them just products--is a functional work of art, in addition to being made f...

This descriptive study examined the influence of demographic factors (age, gender, income, level of education, and religion) on consumers' attitudes to purchase American-made passenger vehicles in three Asian countries: 1) China, 2) Taiwan, and 3) Thailand. Since American-made vehicles still occupy only a small segment of this Asian market, the relationships and differences among the three countries in terms of their culture and country-of-origin effect on product attributes were measured - helping marketers increase market share by better understanding the determining factors leading to notable diversity in the consumers' decision-making process.

Identifying satisfiers and dissatisfiers (i.e., satisfying and dissatisfying product attributes) has long been a major research focus among scholars in various disciplines, including management, marketing and engineering. It is observed that CIT (critical incident technique) is frequently used in such research but it has some limitations. So the objective of this study is to suggest a companion research method, termed as ICT (intensity comparison technique), to complement the use of CIT in identifying satisfiers and dissatisfiers. In the demonstration and empirical validation of ICT, we find that this method is convenient to use and yields results that complement those of CIT. It is expected that this study can trigger future research through which the ICT can be further developed.
