<span> a monopoly directly affect the amount of goods and services that you purchase </span><span>non-price competition </span><span></span>A monopoly's potential to raise prices indefinitely is its most critical
detriment to consumers. Because it has no industry competition, a
monopoly's price is the market price and demand is market demand. Even
at high prices, customers will not be able to substitute the good or
service with a more affordable alternative. Hope this helps ^-^
