VERTICAL MERGER: The consolidation under a single ownership of two separately-owned businesses that have an input-output relationship, in which the output of one firm is the input of another. An example of a vertical merger would be a soft drink company merging with a sugar company to form a single firm. A vertical merger should be contrasted with horizontal merger--two competing firms in the same industry that sell the same products; and conglomerate merger--two firms in totally, completely separate industries.

- Two, as the price increases from 10 cents per minute to 20 cents per minute, total revenue values decrease.
- Three, at the price of 10 cents per minute, total revenue is at its maximum value or $500,000.

- Total revenue increases in the elastic range of demand when they decrease their price.
- Total revenue is at the maximum level at the unit elastic point.

This multiplier is the combination of the expenditures multiplier, which measures the change in aggregate production caused by changes in an autonomous aggregate expenditure, and the tax multiplier which measures the change in aggregate production caused by changes in taxes.
