  2. Monopolistic competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopolistic_competition

    A short-run monopolistic competition equilibrium graph has the same properties of a monopoly equilibrium graph. Long-run equilibrium of the firm under monopolistic competition. The company still produces where marginal cost and marginal revenue are equal; however, the demand curve (MR and AR) has shifted as other companies entered the market ...

  3. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    The maximization of producer surplus can in some cases reduce consumer surplus. [15] Some forms of producer profit maximization are considered anti-competitive practices and are regulated by competition law. [15] Maximization of short-term producer profit can reduce long-term producer profit, which can be exploited by predatory pricing such as ...

  4. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    In a monopoly, marginal revenue (MR) equals marginal cost (MC). The equilibrium quantity is obtained from where MR and MC intersect and the equilibrium price can be found on the demand curve where MR = MC. Property P1 is not satisfied because the amount demand and the amount supplied at the equilibrium price are not equal.

  5. Robinson Crusoe economy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robinson_Crusoe_economy

    Figure 5: Equilibrium in both production and consumption in the Robinson Crusoe economy. At equilibrium, the demand for coconuts will equal the supply of coconuts and the demand for labour will equal the supply of labour. [5] Graphically this occurs when the diagrams under consumer and producer are superimposed. [7] Notice that, MRS Leisure ...

  6. Industrial organization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_organization

    One approach is descriptive in providing an overview of industrial organization, such as measures of competition and the size-concentration of firms in an industry. A second approach uses microeconomic models to explain internal firm organization and market strategy, which includes internal research and development along with issues of internal ...

  7. Perfect competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_competition

    Equilibrium in perfect competition is the point where market demands will be equal to market supply. A firm's price will be determined at this point. In the short run, equilibrium will be affected by demand. In the long run, both demand and supply of a product will affect the equilibrium in perfect competition.

  8. Kinked demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinked_demand

    Stigler first argues that the kinked demand models are not useful, as Hall and Hitch’s model only explains observed phenomenon and is not predictive. He further explains that the kinked demand analysis only suggests why prices remain sticky and does not describe the mechanism that establishes the kink and how the kink can reform once prices ...

  9. Bertrand competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_competition

    The Nash Equilibrium in the Bertrand model is the mutual best response; an equilibrium where neither firm has an incentive to deviate from it. As illustrated in the Diagram 2, the Bertrand-Nash equilibrium occurs when the best response function for both firm's intersects at the point, where P 1 N = P 2 N = M C {\displaystyle P_{1}^{N}=P_{2}^{N ...
