The equilibrium point in a competitive market exists at the point of optimal market efficiency.

<h3>What is competitive market?</h3>

A competitive market exists a term in economics that guides to a marketplace where there exist a large number of buyers and sellers and no single buyer or seller can influence the market. Competitive markets have no obstacles to entry, lots of buyers and sellers, and homogeneous products.

In economics, especially general equilibrium theory,  A perfect market also understood as an atomistic market, is determined  by several idealizing requirements, collectively anointed perfect competition or atomistic competition.

No, the monopoly can never be additional efficient than the perfectly competitive market because the competitive market exists at the point of optimal market efficiency and the monopoly will deliver at the point where the MR and the MC stand equal. here the market has the excess capability and a dead weight loss.

Identify the type of unemployment for the following scenarios:
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

1) b)Frictional

2) c) Cyclical

3) a) Structural

Explanation:

1) Caroline just graduated from college and is looking for a full-time position with an investment banking firm.

FRICTIONAL.

This is a situation of frictional unemployment, which occurs when there is mobility of labor and workers. It occurs in a natural situation, at the time when individuals are looking for a job.

2) Frances is a real estate agent. House sales in her area have declined because the region has been going through a recession. She has no clients and is currently looking for a new full-time job.

CICLYCAL.  

This is a situation that occurs when the economy of a locality cannot sustain the condition of full employment, it can occur in a situation of slow economic growth or certain setbacks.

3) Antonio recently lost his job as a waiter at a local restaurant. A recent increase in the minimum wage keeps local employers from adding more of the low-skill positions for which he qualifies, so he has been unable to find work. He continues to look for a job, but he's considering going back to school for vocational training.

STRUCTURAL.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is not a sufficient number of jobs in a given sector, which can result from several different variables, such as the incompatibility between the vacancies available and the skills of workers.
