            Abstract : 
This paper analyzes the possibility of retail-minus concept application at the market with one incumbent and one or more potential entrants. A comparative numerical analysis of access prices is presented, taking into account the widespread cost based concept and the retail-minus concept. Relevant parameter in determination of the access prices is a measure of substitutability of the offered services.
