This note examines a special case of Hwang and Mai'smodel (1990). It assumes that demand functions are linear and identical in different locations, and shows thata monopolist's output under f.o.b. pricing is identicalto that under discriminatory pricing. But the welfarelevel under f.o.b. pricing may be lower than that underdiscriminatory pricing. These results indicate that the Beckmann proposition on the output effect of spatialprice discrimination holds but the Beckmann proposition on the welfare effect may not hold when the plantlocation is a choice variable.
