IO is the application of microeconomic theory to the analysis of

the analysis of firms, markets and industries
In IO

(unlike microeconomics), the industry structure is entirely modelled and is dynamic.
Number and size distribution of firms
Barriers to entry
Product differentiation
Vertical integration and diversification

What is industrial organization?

IO increases our understanding of problems faced by firms:Externally, how firms

firms:
Externally, how firms compete in the marketplace (Theory of

markets)
Firm as a black box and focus on how firms compete with each other.
Internally, organizing production within the firm (Theory of the firm)
Look inside the firm and explain things firm size, the boundaries of the firm, and incentives within the firm.

What is industrial organization?










Слайд 6 For policy makers:
Competition policy aims to prevent firms

For policy makers:Competition policy aims to prevent firms from abusing market

from abusing market power. [Sherman Act 1890, China antitrust

law 2007]
How to measure market power and excess profit?
How competitive is a specific industry?
What types of firm behavior can make an industry less competitive?
What type of market structure is most conductive of innovation?

IO and policymaking

2010: The EU commission accuses Google of promoting its shopping service

its shopping service in internet search at the expense

of rival services
Google is accused of systematically favouring its own comparison shopping product in its general search results pages
http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-15-4780_en.htm
Google’s response:
“Economic data (…), and statements from complainants all confirm that product search is robustly competitive”.
Google claims that Google shopping is operating in a field that includes Amazon and eBay, where shoppers go to compare prices.

Слайд 10 Dynamic theory where markets are changing due to

Dynamic theory where markets are changing due to the activities of

the activities of entrepreneurial and profit-seeking innovators.
“Creative destruction” (Schumpeter,

1928): Competition is driven by innovation
Innovation destroys old products and processes and replaces them with new ones.
Innovators earn profits and imitation gradually erodes these profits by cutting prices and raising input costs.
Abnormal profits and market power are necessary to motivate firms to innovate, and improve products in the long run

Austrian School: Schumpeter

against government intervention
Large firms are large because they are

more efficient
In the long run abuse of market power is unlikely, e.g. collusive agreements are unstable
Markets have a tendency to revert towards competition, without the need for government intervention

SCP assumes a causal relationship between structure, conduct, and performance.
Most influential during the 1950-1970s.

According to SCP, relationships between structural variables and market performance hold

market performance hold across industries.

The line of causality

is from structure through performance. If a stable relationship is established between structure and market power, it is assumed that structure determines market power.

SCP & European banking: Structure1980s: European banking was fragmented. Banks did

fragmented. Banks did not operate in other countries [high

entry barriers]. Domestic banks did not face competition from foreign banks.
Deregulation made EU banking more competitive
Second Banking Directive, 1990
Creation of the euro
As a consequence: Banks able to trade throughout Europe.
Lowered entry barriers.

Do this make the industry more competitive or less competitive?

Слайд 23 Profits in America and the practical relevance of

Profits in America and the practical relevance of IOSource: ‘Too much

IO
Source: ‘Too much of a good thing’. The Economist,

2016.
Profits have risen in most rich countries over the past ten years.
E.g. America Airlines: Used to make losses; but made $24bn profit in 2015.
How? The falling price of fuel has not been passed on to the consumers.
Why not? Consolidations has left the industry with 4 dominant firms with many shareholders in common.

Profits in America - Historical developmentsIn the 1990s American firms faced

firms faced a wave of competition from low-cost competitors

abroad.
In 1998, Joel Klein (DoJ), declared that “our economy is more competitive today than it has been in a long, long time.”
How to explain the recent increase in corporate earnings?
Since 2008 American firms have engaged in mergers worth $10 trillion, allowing the merged companies to increase market shares and cut costs.
Two-thirds of the industry sectors became more concentrated between 1997 and 2012. The average share of the top 4 firms has risen from 26% to 32%.

Profits in AmericaAbout 25% of America’s abnormal profits are spread across

are spread across a wide range of sectors.
Another 25%

comes from the health-care industry (pharmaceutical and medical-equipment). Patent rules allow temporary monopolies on new drugs and inventions. Much of health-care purchasing is controlled by insurance firms. Four of the largest, Anthem, Cigna, Aetna and Humana, are planning to merge into two larger firms.
The remaining 50% abnormal profits are in the technology sector, where firms such as Google and Facebook enjoy market shares of 40% or more.

LRAC: Lowest cost of producing any given output level when the firm can vary both K and L.
Draw SRAC for all possible levels of K. The curve that enfolds these curves from below is the LRAC.
Compared to SRAC, LRAC decline longer before finally increasing
LRMC: long-run marginal cost

The salary of

Слайд 37 Economies of scale

efficient scale = output level beyond which firms can

make no further savings in LRAC through further expansion.

a particular plant size is efficient, eventually all plants

in that industry should approach that size.
Example from the beer industry:

Слайд 41 Economies of scope
Economies of scope are the cost

Economies of scopeEconomies of scope are the cost savings that arise

savings that arise when a firm produces two or

more outputs using the same set of resources.
Example 1: Manufacturing process
Oil refineries produce gasoline and kerosene as part of the refining process
Example 2: Knowledge gained from developing, producing, or marketing one product can be applied to another product
R&D investment for a specific software can benefit other categories of softwares

Слайд 42 Economies of scope
Example 3: Umbrella advertising
Advertising one Samsung

Economies of scopeExample 3: Umbrella advertisingAdvertising one Samsung product will lead

product will lead to more demand for other Samsung

products (even if they are not related).
New products are easier to introduce when there is an established brand with the desired image.
Virgin: 400+ companies, active in railways, airlines, soda, mobile, media etc.
