Tiivistelmä: | The author discusses an alternative to traditional merger analysis, which consists of demand estimation and the use of a model of postmerger conduct to simulate the competitive effects of a merger. He estimates a brand-level demand system for ready-to-eat cereal using supermarket scanner data and uses the estimates to 1. recover marginal costs 2. simulate postmerger price equilibria, and 3. compute welfare effects, under a variety of assumptions. |
