Linear Market Competition
The importance of location in spatial competition:
Linear market H. Hotelling’s Model
(The Ice Cream Vendor on the beach)
Picture a crowded beach….

Where should ice cream vendors locate?
Ivan lifts a lot of weights…
And the beach with an economic geographer...

Hotelling’s Ice Cream Vendor Problem
Famous urban economic geographer doing ice-cream vendor field work
Pre-computational field evidence remote sensing and recording device
Let’s make some assumptions before we start looking for ice cream vendors… or anything else

Spatial competition in a linear market
Uniform distribution of ice cream consumers on beach Demand for ice cream is inelastic (every consumer
wants a cone no matter what the real price.) Market price is $1, tptn costs are $0.10 per metre Consumers will always buy at the closest market source Vendor is mobile but constrained to 5 locations No commercial inertia

Spatial competition in a linear market
From free market to regulated markets State establishes market locations Peter and Bob apply for and receive a centrally planned
market stall, exclusive access for the season for a fee

Alfred Weber, 1909
Theory of the Location of Industries Assumptions
Isotropic surface Single product plant Localized raw materials Single point market Labour is available Tpt costs a function of weight and distance
Focus on transportation costs
![Page 14: Manufacturing & Industrial Location Theory – Chapter 10 Questions 6 lectures left! Reference map Location Theory Spatial competition: linear market Weberian](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cf45503460f949c1b8e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Alfred Weber, 1909One market, one localized RM source Ubiquitous raw material→ market orientation Pure RM →anywhere from RM location to
market location Are we sceptical? Assuming no terminal costs! Assuming FR on RM= FR on FP
Gross RM →RM orientation

Alfred Weber, 1909One market, two localized RMs Let’s assume two localized RM sources,
S1 & S2
Pure RMs, equal parts of FP weight

Alfred Weber, 1909One market, two localized Gross RMs Let’s assume two localized Gross RM
sources, S1 & S2
Gross RMs, 50% weight loss for each S1, S2, or M = $4
