Abstract
The internationalization of production requires each multinational firm to determine a local content rate for its product made and sold in a foreign country. We investigate the local content rate and pricing decisions for a multinational firm who competes with a local firm in a market without and with a local content requirement (LCR). We derive conditions under which the multinational firm meets the LCR. We also investigate the impact of the LCR on the two firms and how the impact is affected by the technology level in the host country compared to that in the multinational firm's parent country.
