In competitive market equilibrium, the allocation of the social surplus is such that no individual can be made better off without making someone else worse off.

The phrase "competition equilibrium" refers to an equilibrium condition when the firm's goal of maximising profits and the customers' goal of maximising utility both aspire to reach an equilibrium price as a result of freely determined prices.

According to the theory of competitive equilibrium, the firm's supply of the product is equal to the market's demand for that same amount of the product. It is a circumstance in which neither the buyer nor the seller can strengthen their bargaining position with regard to the goods being sold.
