  2. Perfect competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_competition

    In the long run, both demand and supply of a product will affect the equilibrium in perfect competition. A firm will receive only normal profit in the long run at the equilibrium point. [43] As it is well known, requirements for a firm's cost-curve under perfect competition is for the slope to move upwards after a certain amount is produced.

  3. Market power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_power

    The HHI for a monopoly is 1 whilst for perfect competition, the HHI is zero. Unlike the N-firm concentration ratio, large firms are given more weight in the HHI and as a result, the HHI conveys more information. However the HHI has its own limitations as it is sensitive to the definition of a market, therefore meaning you cannot use it to cross ...

    The total surplus of perfect competition market is the highest. And the total surplus of imperfect competition market is lower. In the monopoly market, if the monopoly firm can adopt first-level price discrimination, the consumer surplus is zero and the monopoly firm obtains all the benefits in the market. [15]

  5. Marginal revenue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_revenue

    Under perfect competition, there are multiple firms present in the market. Changes in the supply level of a single firm does not have an impact on the total price in the market. [18] Firms follow the price determined by market equilibrium of supply and demand and are price takers. [19] The marginal revenue curve is a horizontal line at the ...

  6. Monopoly price - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly_price

    The rule also implies that, absent menu costs, a monopolistic firm will never choose a point on the inelastic portion of its demand curve. For an equilibrium to exist in a monopoly or in an oligopoly market, the price elasticity of demand must be less than negative one (<), for marginal revenue to be positive. [4]

  7. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    In the long run, a firm will theoretically have zero expected profits under the competitive equilibrium. The market should adjust to clear any profits if there is perfect competition. In situations where there are non-zero profits, we should expect to see either some form of long run disequilibrium or non-competitive conditions, such as ...

  8. Supply and demand - Wikipedia
