An industry is currently performing competitively with price equal to marginal cost.
If demand is P = 200 - Q and LRMC = LRAC = 50, what are industry output and price?
If a series of mergers monopolizes the industry and results in lower costs such that LRMC = LRAC = 40, what happens to industry output and price?
Does this series of mergers improve welfare?
If the merges reduced the monopolist's costs to LRMC = LRAC = 20, would the mergers improve welfare?
