This book was released on 2009-11-16 with total page 1185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book combines practical guidance and theoretical background for analysts using empirical techniques in competition and antitrust investigations. Peter Davis and Eliana Garcés show how to integrate empirical methods, economic theory, and broad evidence about industry in order to provide high-quality, robust empirical work that is tailored to the nature and quality of data available and that can withstand expert and judicial scrutiny. Davis and Garcés describe the toolbox of empirical techniques currently available, explain how to establish the weight of pieces of empirical work, and make some new theoretical contributions. The book consistently evaluates empirical techniques in light of the challenge faced by competition analysts and academics--to provide evidence that can stand up to the review of experts and judges. The book's integrated approach will help analysts clarify the assumptions underlying pieces of empirical work, evaluate those assumptions in light of industry knowledge, and guide future work aimed at understanding whether the assumptions are valid. Throughout, Davis and Garcés work to expand the common ground between practitioners and academics.

Book excerpt: We propose a method for bounding the demand elasticity in growing, homogeneous-product markets that requires only minimal data -- market price and quantity over a time span as short as two periods. Reminiscent of revealed-preference arguments using choices over time to bound the shape of indifference curves, we use shifts in the equilibrium over time to bound the shape of the demand curve under the assumption that growing demand curves do not cross. We apply the method to assess the effectiveness of the antitrust remedy in the 1952 Du Pont decision, ordering the incumbent manufacturers to license their patents for commercial plastics. Commentators have suggested that the incumbents may have preserved the monopoly outcome by gaming the licensing contracts. The upper bounds on demand elasticities that we compute are significantly less than 1 in many post-remedy years. Such inelastic demand is inconsistent with monopoly, suggesting the remedy may have been effective.

Download or read book What Antitrust Practitioners Should Know About Elasticities But Many of Them Don't written by Adriaan Ten Kate and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since a long time price elasticities of demand form part of the standard toolkit of competition analysis. It is an economic concept measuring the responsiveness of the demand for different goods and services to changes in their prices and is widely used in market definition exercises and horizontal merger control. However, although most antitrust practitioners believe to be familiar with the concept, there are some fundamental characteristics of elasticities stemming from the theory of consumer behavior, which are virtually absent from the antitrust literature and many practitioners are hardly aware of. The purpose of this article is to draw the attention to these properties and to underscore their importance for competition analysis.

Download or read book Antitrust and Competition in Two-Sided Markets written by Alexei Alexandrov and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article extends antitrust analysis to two-sided markets in which a virtual monopolist competes with local bricks-and-mortar dealers. The discussion examines the market power of an Internet market maker as well as an Internet matchmaker. The analysis shows that equilibrium in a two-sided market can be characterized as a one-sided market in which transaction demand depends on the bid-ask spread of the central market maker. This allows for a straightforward extension of critical demand elasticity and critical loss analysis from one-sided markets to two-sided markets, with antitrust tests based on the hypothetical monopolist's bid-ask spread. Antitrust analysis of a one-sided market also carries over to a two-sided market with a matchmaker where antitrust tests are based on the sum of participation fees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One might mistakenly think that the long tradition of economic analysis in antitrust law would mean there is little new to say. Yet the field is surprisingly dynamic and changing. The specially commissioned chapters in this landmark volume offer a rigorous analysis of the field's most current and contentious issues. Focusing on those areas of antitrust economics that are most in flux, leading scholars discuss topics such as: mergers that create unilateral effects or eliminate potential competition; whether market definition is necessary; tying, bundled discounts, and loyalty discounts; a new theory of predatory pricing; assessing vertical price-fixing after Leegin; proving horizontal agreements after Twombly; modern analysis of monopsony power; the economics of antitrust enforcement; international antitrust issues; antitrust in regulated industries; the antitrust-patent intersection; and modern methods for measuring antitrust damages. Students and scholars of law and economics, law practitioners, regulators, and economists with an interest in industrial organization and consulting will find this seminal Handbook an essential and informative resource.

This book was released on 2014-10-08 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has witnessed remarkable developments in the quantitative analysis of horizontal mergers. Increases in computing power and the quantity and quality of data available have substantially reduced the costs of estimating demand systems using econometric methods. Good estimates of retail demand elasticities can make an important contribution to assessing the potential effects of a manufacturer merger on consumer prices. While estimates of demand relationships can make substantial contributions to merger analysis, it is much like every other area of empirical economics, in that practitioners invariably are forced to confront and resolve a series of difficult econometric and conceptual issues. The purpose of this book is to identify a number of these issues that we believe researchers and practitioners should address, with the ultimate goal of improving the quality of antitrust analysis.

Book excerpt: This paper discusses some implications of the considerable uncertainty that, despite dramatic recent advances in the application and implementation of economics, surrounds antitrust analysis. During the past quarter century, increasingly rigorous economic models and econometric techniques have come to be employed in the identification and estimation of competitive effects. On the theory front we have witnessed a far greater appreciation of unilateral effects and increased use of game theory. On the empirical front the techniques for estimating demand elasticities have become ever more refined. There has also been growing use of merger simulation models to transform empirical estimates into predictions of competitive effects. The reliance upon microeconomic theory and advanced estimation techniques as a basis for antitrust analysis and decision-making has indeed been striking. It has not, however, eliminated the still-considerable uncertainty and imprecision involved in forming recommendations. One step toward grounding antitrust policy on a more economically sound, welfare-oriented path is to recognize more explicitly the uncertainty inherent in antitrust analysis and prediction, and to incorporate into the decision making process more information on the costs of making wrong decisions. In addition to analyzing the implications of uncertainty for efficient antitrust policy, this paper explores also the widely perceived differences in antitrust policy between the U.S. and the EU. These differences, it suggests, are not primarily a result of opposing views concerning either the relevance of economics or the ultimate goals of antitrust. Rather, they likely derive from the uncertainty inherent in antitrust decision-making and enforcement, along with different underlying views and presumptions concerning the scope for improvement by an imperfectly performing government over what may at times be an imperfectly performing marketplace.
