초록

This study analyses the effect of sharing behavior on durable-goods. Result shows that, under monopoly, consumers as well as the monopolist benefit from the sharing behavior. Consumers are willing to pay more when they can share the durable-goods with others. As a result, the monopolist increases the production which increases the consumer surplus further. Under perfect competition, similar result is obtained. Even though the price of the durable-goods does not change with the sharing, more consumers are willing to buy the goods when sharing is possible.
