We study the effects of deadlines and discounting in a standard endogenous leadership model. We show that there will be occasional changes in the identity of the price leader with any cost of delay or discounting, however small. By analyzing the incentives that induce a firm to take up the leader position we derive positive predictions about which firm will lead most price changes.4304 bytesapplication/pdfenEndogenous timingPrice leadershipWar of attritionL13Pricing--Mathematical modelsWorking Paperhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/1.0/
