“…It is evident from the proof of theorem 2.6 that these results hold for more general design/location problems; specifically, they hold when there are n inputs and they apply to any location space, not just a line. (See Khalili, Mathur, and Bodenhorn [1974]; Hurter, Martinich, and Vent a [1980];and Eswaran, Kanemoto, and Ryan [1981]. For brevity, these references will sometimes be referred to as KMB [1974], HMV [1980], and EKR [1981], respectively.…”

“…Furthermore, it follows from (11) that (13) is well-known in the Weber-Moses transport cost minimizing location problem (see Khalili et al 1974;Miller and Jensen 1978). It indicates that the change in transport cost of v I due to the marginal change in location is balanced by that of v P .…”

This paper examines the employment effect of wage discrimination in the well-known Weber-Moses triangular model. Assume that the plant location is a choice variable. It shows that the wage discrimination will change total employment of a monopsony if the supply labor curves in two separate markets are linear. It also shows that the wage discrimination may decrease total employment if the more elastic labor supply curve is convex and the less elastic labor supply curve is concave. These results are significantly different from the traditional results in the non-spatial economy. It indicates that the location decision of a firm has an important impact on the employment effect of wage discrimination.

“…The theory of industrial location in a heterogeneous space, i.e., markets arise at discrete points, was first developed by Launhardt [10] and Weber [22] and then extended in several directions by many others, notably Moses [17], Sakashita [18,19], Bradfield [2], Emerson [4], Woodward [23], Khalili, Mathur and Bodenhorn [9], Miller and Jensen [16], Mather [14,15], Eswaran, Kanemoto and Ryan [5], Mai [II,12], Martinich and Hurter [13], and Hsu and Mai [8]. In the traditional location model, the firm's location is determined either by profit maximization or by cost minimization considerations.…”
