  • Abstract
    This paper studies the optimal pricing of a congestible network good offered by a monopoly who faces a double asymmetry of information concerning both usersʹ valuations and usersʹ unit waiting costs, which leads to a random participation problem. We show that the textbook price is lower than the price with random participation.
