Abstract

This note considers entry and exit problems of an agent in assignment markets without the quasi-linear utility assumption. We generalize Mo's (1988) strong dominance theorem to this class of environment. For example, if a seller enters the market and he is active in some equilibrium of the new market then there exists a non-empty subset of objects of which competitive prices are decreased whatever equilibria of old and new markets are selected.
