Suppose the european union (eu) is investigating a proposed merger between two of the largest distillers of premium scotch liquor. based on some economists’ definition of the relevant market, the two firms proposing to merge enjoyed a combined market share of about two-thirds, while another firm essentially controlled the remaining share of the market. additionally, suppose that the (wholesale) market elasticity of demand for scotch liquor is -1.6 and that it costs $14.80 to produce and distribute each liter of scotch. based only on these data, provide quantitative estimates of the likely pre- and postmerger prices in the wholesale market for premium scotch liquor. in light of your estimates, are you surprised that the eu might raise concerns about potential anticompetitive effects of the proposed merger? explain carefully

Google started as one of many internet search engines, amazon started as an online book seller, and ebay began as a site where people could sell used personal items in auctions. these firms have grown to be so large and dominant that they are facing antitrust scrutiny from competition regulators in the us and elsewhere. did these online giants grow by fairly beating competition, or did they use unfair advantages? are there any clouds on the horizon for these firms -- could they face diseconomies of scale or diseconomies of scope as they continue to grow? if so, what factors may limit their continued growth?
