The document discusses market structures and perfect competition. It describes the key features of perfect competition as having many small businesses, standardized products, free entry and exit, and firms that are price takers. Under perfect competition, firms maximize profits by producing at the quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost. In the long run, perfectly competitive markets achieve equilibrium when price equals minimum average cost and all firms earn zero economic profits. The benefits of perfect competition are that it results in minimum-cost pricing and marginal-cost pricing, which benefits consumers.
This revision presentation looks at profit satisficing as an alternative objective for businesses. Why might firms satisfice? What are some of the possible consequences for economic welfare and efficiency?

MANAGERIAL ECONOMICS
INSTRU.
A firm’s pricing market power depends on its competitive environment.
In perfectly competitive markets, firms have no market power. They are “price takers.” They make decisions based on the market price, which they are powerless to influence.
In markets that are not perfectly competitive (which describes most markets), most firms have some degree of market power.
Strategy in the absence of market power
Firms cannot influence price and, because products are not unique, they cannot influence demand by advertising or product differentiation.
Managers in this environment maximize profit by minimizing cost, through the efficient use of resources, and by determining the quantity to produce.

Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis is a method of cost accounting that looks at the impact that varying levels of costs and volume have on operating profit.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
