The Influence of Mergers on Firms’ Product-mix Strategies
This study draws on the institutional and resource-based theories of the firm and examines whether multi-product firms use mergers as a strategic tool to reconfigure their product-mix toward high-profit products. We propose that mergers facilitate product-mix reconfiguration by relaxing institutional and organizational constraints on resource redeployment. Analysis of data from the U.S. hospita...
متن کاملMulti - Product Firms , Industry Mix , and Product Switching ∗ Andrew B . Bernard
This paper examines firms and the products they manufacture — and abandon — over time. We find strong relationships between product switching and a number of microand macroeconomic variables, including firm performance, aggregate manufacturing growth and product diversification. Most importantly, product switching is a very important — and active — margin of firm adjustment that is positively c...
متن کاملOn the optimal mix of patent instruments
A special characteristic of the patent system is that it features multiple patent-policy levers that can be employed by policymakers. In this study, we develop a quality-ladder model to analyze the optimal mix of patent instruments. Speci cally, we consider (a) patent breadth and (b) the division of pro t in research joint ventures. We analytically derive optimal patent policies and then calibr...
متن کاملSecret Sharing Based On Cartesian product Of Graphs
The purpose of this paper is to study the information ratio of perfect secret sharing of product of some special families of graphs. We seek to prove that the information ratio of prism graphs $Y_{n}$ are equal to $frac{7}{4}$ for any $ngeq 5$, and we will gave a partial answer to a question of Csirmaz cite{CL}. We will also study the information ratio of two other families $C_{m}times C_{n}$ a...

Several types of regulations limit the amount of different emissions that a firm may create from its production processes. Depending on the emission, these regulations could include threshold values, penalties and taxes, and/or emission allowances that can be traded. However, many firms try to comply with these regulations without a systematic plan, often leading not only to emission violations...
