Differentiating F π, r, p, pi, p2 with respect to its elements
We differentiate F π, r, p, pi, p2 with respect to its elements π, r, a, p1, and p2.
— = v2-a-p2- v2-va-p2 - v1 - p1 1 + r /r

Conditions that give an optimal bid that equals the expected consumption value in an
auction for a new experience good
It is straightforward to show that ifv1-p1=v2-α-p2, v1-p1=v2 +a-p2, r = ∞, ττ = O,
π = 1, or a = 0, there would not be any information value associated with trying the new
brand in the auction, and the subgame perfect bidding strategy would be equal to the expected
consumption value.
First, if v1 - p1 - v2 - a - p2, we have that F > 0. This gives the following optimal bid from
equation (14):
