Types of markets and their characteristics.Binjal Patel
This presentation is all about Marketing types and their characteristics in economy or in marketing.I added all the information which i have knowledge about.
Students should be able to:
Understand the assumptions of perfect competition and be able to explain the behaviour of firms in this market structure.
Understand the significance of firms as price-takers in perfectly competitive markets. An understanding of the meaning of shut-down point is required. The impact of entry into and exit from the industry should be considered.
An Engineering & Managerial Economics presentation on Price Determination, topics covered were price determination under Perfect Competition, Monopoly, Duopoly and Oligopoly.
A market can be defined as a group of firms willing and able to sell a similar product or service to the same potential buyers.
Imperfect competition covers all situations where there is neither pure competition nor pure monopoly.
Perfect competition and pure monopoly are very unlikely to be found in the real world.
In the real world, it is the imperfect competition lying between perfect competition and pure monopoly.
The fundamental distinguishing characteristic of imperfect competition is that average revenue curve slopes downwards throughout its length, but it slopes downwards at different rates in different categories of imperfect competition.
Monopoly refers to the market situation where there is a
Single seller selling a product which has no close substitutes.
Monopolies are characterized by a lack of economic competition to produce the good or service, a lack of viable substitute goods, and the existence of a high monopoly price well above the firm's marginal cost that leads to a high monopoly profit
The word “oligopoly” comes from the Greek “oligos” meaning "little or small” and “polein” meaning “to sell.” When “oligos” is used in the plural, it means “few” ,few firms or few sellers.
DEFINATION:
Oligopoly is that form of market where there are few firms and there is natural interdependence among the firms regarding price and output policy.

Conditions for Company Equilibrium
To achieve Equilibrium, a Company must meet two conditions:
You need to make sure that the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost (MR = MC).
If MR> MC, the Company has an incentive to expand production and sell additional units.
If MR<MC, the Company needs to reduce production because additional units generate more costs than revenue.
Only when MR = MC does the Company achieve maximum profit.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. MARKET STRUCTURE
Meaning:
The term structure refers to
something that has organization and
dimension – shape, size and design; and
which is evolved for the purpose of
performing a function.
3. By the term market structure we refer to
the size and design of the market. It also includes
the manner of the operation of the market.
1. Market structure refers to those organizational
characteristics of a market which influence the nature
of competition and pricing, and affect the conduct of
business firms;
2. Market structure refers to those characteristics of the
market which affect the, traders behavior and their
performances;
3. Market structure is the formal organization of the
functional activity of a marketing institution.
4. * Components of Market Structure:
1. Concentration of Market Power
2. Degree of Product Differentiation
3. Conditions for Entry of Firms in the Market
4. Flow of Market Information
5. Degree of Integration
5. 1. Concentration of Market Power:
The concentration of market power is an important
element determining the nature of competition.
The number and size of firms existing in the market.
The extent of concentration represents the control of an
individual firm or a group of firms over the buying and
selling of the produce.
A high degree of market concentration restricts the
movement of goods between buyers and sellers at fair and
competitive prices, and creates an oligopoly or oligopsony
situation in the market.
6. 2. Degree of Product Differentiation:
If products are homogeneous, the
price variations in the market will not be wide.
When products are heterogeneous, firms have
the tendency to charge different prices for
their products. Everyone tries to prove that
his product is superior to the products of
others.
7. 3. Conditions for Entry of Firms in the Market:
Another dimension of the market
structure is the restriction, if any, on the entry
of firms in the market. Sometimes, a few big
firms do not allow new firms to enter the
market or make their entry difficult by their
dominance in the market. There may also be
some government restrictions on the entry of
firms.
8. 4. Flow of Market Information:
A well-organized market
intelligence information system helps
all the buyers and sellers to freely
interact with one another in arriving at
prices and striking deals.
9. 5. Degree of Integration:
The behavior of an integrated market
will be different from that of a market where
there is no or less integration either among
the firms or of their activities. Firms plan their
strategies in respect of the methods to be
employed in determining prices, increasing
sales, co-ordinating with competing firms
and adopting practices.
10. Dynamics of Market Structure – Conduct and
performance:
For a satisfactory market performance,
the market structure should keep pace with the
following changes:
1. Production Pattern:
Significant changes occur in the
production pattern because of technological,
economic and institutional factors. The market
structure should be re-oriented to keep pace
with such changes.
11. 2. Demand Pattern
The demand for various products,
specially in terms of form and quality, keeps on
changing because of change in incomes, the
pattern of distribution among consumers, and
changes in their tastes and habits. The market
structure should be re-oriented to keep it in
harmony with the changes in demand.
(eg. Engle’s law of consumption)
12. 3. Costs and Patterns of Marketing Functions:
Marketing functions such as transportation,
storage, financing and dissemination of market
information, have a great bearing on the type of
market structure.
Government policies with regard to
purchases, sales and subsidies affect the
performance of market functions. The market
structure should keep on adjusting to the changes in
costs and government policy.
13. 4. Technological Change in Industry:
Technological changes necessitate
changes in the market structure through
adjustments in the scale of business, the
number of firms, and in their financial
requirements.
14. Forms of Market Structure:
On the basis of competition, a market can be
classified in the following ways:
A. Perfect Competition
B. Imperfect Competition
1. Monopoly
2. Duopoly
3. Oligopoly
4. Monopolistic Competition
15. A. Perfect Competition Market:
Perfect competition is a market
structure in which there are many sellers
and buyers transacting a homogenous
product.
*
16. Characteristics of Perfect Competition:
1. Large number of buyers and sellers
2. Homogenous product
3. Free Entry or Exit of Firms:
The next condition is that the firms should be free to
enter or leave the industry. It implies that whenever the
industry is earning excess profits, attracted by these profits
some new firms enter the industry.
4. No Government Regulation:
Sellers are free to sell their goods to any buyers and the
buyers are free to buy from any sellers.
*
17. 5. Perfect Knowledge in Market condition:
This condition implies a close contact between
buyers and sellers. Buyers and sellers possess
complete knowledge about the prices at which goods
are being bought and sold, and of the prices at which
others are prepared to buy and sell.
6. Absence of Transport Costs:
Another condition is that there are no transport
costs in carrying of product from one place to another.
If transport costs are added to the price of the product,
even a homogeneous commodity will have different
prices depending upon transport costs from the place
of supply.
18. 7. Profit Maximisation Goal:
Every firm has only one goal of maximising its
profits.
8. Absence of Selling Costs:
Under perfect competition, the costs of advertising,
sales-promotion, etc. do not arise because all firms
produce a homogeneous product.
19. B. Imperfect Competition:
1. Monopoly:
Monopoly is a market situation in which there is
only one seller of a product.
No other firms produce a similar product.
There is a single firm selling a commodity for which
there are no close substitutes.
For eg.: Railway
2. Duopoly:
A duopoly market is one which has only two sellers
of a commodity.
20. 3. Oligopoly Market:
A market in which there are more than two but still
a few sellers of a commodity is termed as an oligopoly
market.
Pure oligopoly is found primarily among producers
of such industrial products as aluminium, cement,
copper, steel, zinc, etc.
Imperfect oligopoly is found among producers of
such consumer goods as automobiles, cigarettes, soaps
and detergents, TVs, rubber tyres, refrigerators,
typewriters, etc.
21. Characteristics of Oligopoly:
In addition to fewness of sellers, most oligopolistic
industries have several common characteristics which are
explained below:
1. Interdependence:
Each oligopolist firm knows that changes in its price,
advertising, product characteristics, etc. may lead to
counter-moves by rivals.
He can reduce or increase the price for the whole
oligopolist market by selling more quantity or less and affect
the profits of the other sellers.
It implies that each seller is aware of the price-moves of
the other sellers and their impact on his profit.
22. (2) Advertisement:
“Under oligopoly advertising can become a life-
and-death matter.”
For example, if all oligopolists continue to spend a
lot on advertising their products and one seller does not
match up with them he will find his customers gradually
going in for his rival‟s product.
If, on the other hand, one oligopolist advertises his
product, others have to follow him to keep up their sales.
23. (3) Competition:
This leads to another feature of the oligopolistic
market, the presence of competition.
Each seller is always on the alert and keeps a close
watch over the moves of its rivals in order to have a
counter-move. This is true competition.
24. 4. Lack of Uniformity:
Another feature of oligopoly market is the
lack of uniformity in the size of firms.
Some may be small, others very large. Such a
situation is asymmetrical. This is very common in the
American economy.
25. Monopolistic competition:
When a large number of sellers deal in
heterogeneous and differentiated form of a
commodity, the situation is called monopolistic
competition.
For example, they have to choose between various
makes of insecticides, pumpsets, fertilizers and
equipments.
26. The following are the main features of monopolistic
competition:
(1) Large Number of Sellers:
In monopolistic competition the number of sellers
is large.
2) Product Differentiation:
One of the most important features of the
monopolistic competition is differentiation.
For example, they have to choose between various
makes of insecticides, pumpsets, fertilizers and
equipment.
27. (3) Freedom of Entry and Exit of Firms:
Another feature of monopolistic competition is the
freedom of entry and exit of firms.
(4) Product Groups:
There is no any „industry‟ under monopolistic
competition but a „group‟ of firms producing similar
products. Each firm produces a distinct product and is
itself an industry.
For eg.: Product groups, such as cars, cigarettes, etc.
28. (5) Selling Costs:
Under monopolistic competition where the
product is differentiated.
Selling costs are essential to push up the sales.
Besides, advertisement, it includes expenses on
salesman, free service, free sampling, premium
coupons and gifts, etc.
