Abstract:
Taking the advanced technology of the foreign firm into account, a mixed duopoly three-stage game model is established in the context of research and development(R&D)investment subsidies and product subsidies for domestic firms provided by the government, and the R&D subsidy policy of domestic firms in competition with foreign firms is analyzed. The equilibrium output, R&D investment of the domestic firm, social welfare and the value of government subsidies are derived, in the case of the two policies, R&D investment subsidies and product subsidies for domestic firms, provided by the government. The results show that, the equilibrium output and the optimal social welfare under the R&D investment subsidy policy are both less than those under the product subsidy policy; the optimal R&D investment under the R&D investment subsidy policy is less than that under the product subsidy policy; and the R&D product subsidy has a more obvious incentive effect on firm R&D investment. Under the background of the leading edge of technology of foreign firms, the product subsidy policy drawn up by the government to encourage R&D innovation of domestic firms is more effective than the R&D investment subsidy policy.
考虑到国外企业的技术领先优势, 在政府给予国内企业研发投入补贴和产品补贴2种情形下, 分别建立了混合双寡头三阶段博弈模型, 分析了国外企业竞争下的国内企业研发补贴策略.得出了在研发投入补贴与产品补贴情形时国内企业的均衡产出、研发投入、最优社会福利以及政府的补贴总额.结果表明, 研发投入补贴策略下的均衡产出和最优社会福利比产品补贴策略下的均衡产出和最优社会福利低;研发投入补贴策略下的最优研发投入低于产品补贴下的最优研发投入;研发产品补贴策略对企业研发投入具有更明显的激励效应.在国外企业技术领先优势下, 政府为激励国内企业研发创新提供产品补贴策略要优于研发投入补贴策略.
