While …-value auction, we find that such cross ownership has an effect similar to reducing the number of bidders while holding constant the … distribution of the highest value in the auction. A similar decrease in competition occurs in independent private-value second …

This study investigates interrelated factor demands for a multi-output technology (voice and data output) in the Australian telecommunication industry over a long period of time (1922 through 1983). While a dynamic model would appear to be necessary to investigate disequilibrium associated with...
