The opportunity cost is stated in relative pricing, that is, the price of one option in comparison to another.

When there are numerous vendors in a market but no one is significant enough to control the price of a product. Because both items must be produced, the relative price must match the opportunity cost. If the opportunity cost of one good is lower in the home country than so will be the relative price.

As bananas cost $0.90 per kg, so, if  a toothpaste is  for $2.25, we are forgoing 2.25 kgs banana (2.25/0.9). Thus, the opportunity cost is 2.5 kg bananas which is equal to the relative price of bananas.

Therefore, relative price is an opportunity cost.

Which of the following statements about oligopolies is not correct? a. An oligopolistic market has only a few sellers. b. The ac
Finger [1]

Answer:

d. Unlike monopolies and monopolistically competitive markets, oligopolies prices do not exceed their marginal revenues.

Explanation:

An oligopoly can be defined as a market formation where in a given sector of the economy there are only a small number of competing companies offering a product or service. Its structure is formed by imperfect competition (between monopoly and perfect competition).

The difference between monopoly and oligopoly is that the number of companies that the market has will set the price of products in an oligopoly market, whereas in the monopoly only one company dominates the market and therefore that company determines the price of the good, as it is a market without competition. Therefore, alternative D is the incorrect one.
