Monopoly, Oligopoly and Strategy

12.1 MONOPOLISTIC COMPETITION Is Monopolistic Competition
... Economic profit induces entry and economic loss induces exit, as in perfect competition. Entry decreases the demand for the product of each firm. Exit increases the demand for the product of each firm. In the long run, economic profit is competed away and firms earn normal profit. Figure 12.3 on the ...

Perfect Competition
... • In the short run, if a firm finds that its price is less than its average total cost, should it shut down its operation? • The layperson says that a firm maximizes profits when total revenue minus total cost is as large as possible and positive. The economist says that a firm maximizes profits whe ...
