    The Greenbik Case

    The conclusion drawn from Arnotts Ltd v TPC was it could not be established the appropriate market was wider than just biscuit and subsequently was found to have breach s 50 . Similarly, Cycloplatform cannot claim by acquiring the two competitors it was had a market outside of bike sharing therefore the merger would not be successful. Horizontal mergers have the effects of concentration of market power, facilitating collusive conduct and leading to output restriction. The ACCC would also take into account factors listed in s 50(3) in determining whether the acquisition would likely have the effect of substantially lessening competition. The main problem with horizontal mergers is it not only lessens competition but harms consumers. The remaining firms following the merger have the ability to act in a coordinate manner on certain competitive dimension via coordinated interaction. As the ACCC is most concerned about consumer impacts implications such higher prices, lower quality and a reduction in choice would warrant most horizontal mergers…

    Case Summary: Pennsylvania Railroad and Ny Central Railroad 1968

    In fact, both companies seem as though they determined to merge no matter the cost nor the concession required. It appears as though there was very little foresight and planning for after the merger took place. Also, Pennsylvania was not the preferred choice for merging for New York Central but rather it was the default choice, as they had been turned down from merging with a different company previously. Finally, to ensure the deal took place they had made costly arrangements with Unions to rehire 5000 employees who had already been terminated as well they had to offer lifetime job protection which was a costly mistake due to the fact that the assumed cost savings were never realized. It appears as though both companies recognized the necessity to merge and were driven to that goal without proper planning for after the deal took place as…

    Of course with any merger, competition and its impact has to be taken into consideration. The biggest competition with the healthcare industry is the FTC (Federal Trade Commission), they have the ability to "cease and desist" the merger. Over the years the FTC has ceased and desisted many mergers between the health care industry and hospitals mainly because of the affect the merger has had on the increase in prescription drug prices.

    Taylor Swift profile

    When I think about credibility I think about honesty, trust, and knowledge. Does this also apply to musical artists? They must be true to what they write about. Could this person be a friend of mine? I would hope that they would be a caring and an honest friend. I like a wide variety of main stream music being released today, but still, there are only a few artists that I will follow no matter what they put out, simply because their music reaches out to to me. I normally do not like it when artists try to impress their fans by acting like someone they are not. An artist must be original—create their own image to the world and along with that, a new, fresh twist on modern music that generally sounds the same. Overall, when listening to an artist, I expect them to have an honest connection with the audience, originality, and above all, be the same person that I fell in love with in the beginning.…
