  • Abstract
    This paper provides a complete characterization of equilibrium menus offered by a monopolist to the income constrained consumers in a vertically differentiated market. Even when all consumers have the same marginal willingness-to-pay, the monopolist can profitably discriminate between them provided they have different (binding) budget constraints
