posting Buyers Guides on vehicles, and 

revising them as needed are typically 

done by clerical or low-level 

administrative personnel. Using a 

clerical cost rate of $10.75 per hour and 

an estimate of 2,012,250 burden hours 

for disclosure requirements, the total 

labor cost burden would be 

approximately $21,632,000 (rounded to 

the nearest thousand). 

Capital or other non-labor costs: The 

cost of the Buyers Guide form itself is 

estimated to be 30 cents per form, so 

that forms for 30 million vehicles would 

cost dealers $9,000,000. In making this 

estimate, staff conservatively assumes 

that all dealers will purchase preprinted 

forms instead of producing them 

internally, although dealers may 

produce them at minimal expense using 

current office automation technology. 

Capital and start-up costs associated 

with the Rule are minimal.

William E. Kovacic, 

General Counsel.

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

Granting of Request for Early 

Termination of the Waiting Period 

Under the Premerger Notification 

Rules 

Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 

U.S.C. 18a, as added by Title II of the 

Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust 

Improvements Act of 1976, requires 

persons contemplating certain mergers 

or acquisitions to give the Federal Trade 

Commission and the Assistant Attorney 

General advance notice and to wait 

designated periods before 

consummation of such plans. Section 

7A(b)(2) of the Act permits the agencies, 

in individual cases, to terminate this 

waiting period prior to its expiration 

and requires that notice of this action be 

published in the Federal Register. 

The following transactions were 

granted early termination of the waiting 

period provided by law and the 

premerger notification rules. The grants 

were made by the Federal Trade 

Commission and the Assistant Attorney 

General for the Antitrust Division of the 

Department of Justice. Neither agency 

intends to take any action with respect 

to these proposed acquisitions during 

the applicable waiting period.
