  • 16. Why Monopolies are Strong. Cost advantage – Economies of scale Control over supplies Fear of reaction, eg. Price war Control over outlets High entry barrier.
  • 17. Grades => Profit. Grades are a necessity for many students. Parents will pay for grades. Creates competition/higher standard for grades. Prices can regulate demand and standard. Grades are intangible. Grades in CA are already inflated.
  • 18. Examples of successes. Google as a search engine. The spice trade in 1600s. Food and beverages in USJ Cheap products in China Documentation from the Government
  • 19. Why we’re better. Perfect Competition Low amount of funds No influence on price: no market power. Numerous substitutes available. Oligopoly Not as much market power as a monopoly. Not as much control on prices. Price takers. Collusion
  • 20. Why we’re better (cont.) Monopolistic competition Insignificant, small influence on market. Branding/advertising required. Minimal research and development. Neither productive nor allocative efficiency is achieved.
