Identify the type of merger in each of the following cases:
Case 1: (Conglomerate Merger)
Case 2: (Congeneric Merger)
Case 3: (Horizontal Merger)
Case 4: (Horizontal Merger)
......................
SOLUTION:
Case 1 = Conglomeration

Market-extension merger - Two companies that sell the same products in different markets.
Horizontal merger - Two companies that are in direct competition and share the same product lines and markets.

Case 2 is VERTICAL MERGER

1-Conglomeration
2-Vertical Merger
3-Market-extension Merger
4-Horizontal Merger
