Optimal Tariff Design

Optimal Tariff Design is a normative economic framework that prescribes the structuring of prices for a monopolist's services across different consumer segments to maximize social welfare subject to a revenue constraint, distinguishing it from alternative pricing models by its adherence to the Ramsey–Boiteux condition of setting markups inversely proportional to demand elasticities.
