タイトル:A Theory of Block Tariffs

【abstract】
The paper extends the type-assignment approach discussed in Goldman et al. (1984) in a principal-agent framework with type-dependent reservation utility, and shows a necessary and sufficient condition for the optimality of posting a block tariff. The method in the paper can be applicable when consumers’ preferences exhibit income effects as in Roberts (1979).
