DESCRIPTION:Understanding how firms pass cost shocks through to prices und
 er different competitive conditions is of fundamental importance across ma
 ny fields in economics. Yet\, despite theoretical advances\, there is very
  little empirical evidence on this question.\n\nIn this paper\, we measure
  how pass-through varies with competition in isolated markets of different
  size. Using daily pricing data from gas stations\, we study how changes i
 n excise duty tax across petroleum products was pass-through to retail pri
 ces across different Greek islands with a different number of competitors.
