Downloadable! Study of the impact of mergers and acquisitions (MAs) on productivity and market power has been complicated by the difficulty of separating these two effects. We use newlydeveloped techniques to separately estimate productivity and markups across a wide range of industries using detailed plantlevel data. Employing a differenceindifferences framework, we find that MAs are ...
