摘要
This paper studies the effects of uncertainty on the timing of adoption of a new technology in a duopoly. Firms are uncertain of the innovative capabilities of their rivals and about the profitability of adoption. These features lead to a richer and, in some respects, more plausible theory of adoption, in which rents from delayed adoption are always realized, and returns are not equalized across adoption times.
