Answer:

Letter a is correct. <em>Monopolistic competition is similar to monopoly because both market structures are characterized by firms being price makers rather than price takers.</em>

Explanation:

<u> A monopoly</u> is an economic situation whose main characteristic is imperfect competition, that is, only one company owns a market for a particular good or service and for this reason is able to influence the price of that good or service for its own benefit.

<u>Monopolistic competition</u> resembles monopoly in that it is characterized by business competition for similar but not equal products, so they are also capable of making the price, since similar products sold on the market cannot be considered perfect substitutes.

Answer:

a. Monopolistic competition is similar to monopoly because both market structures are characterized by firms being price makers rather than price takers.

<em>CORRECT </em> Both are price makers there is high differenciation between product thus each firm can set his own price while monopoly can determinate the price as is the only firm in the market

Explanation:

<em>INCORRECT</em> in a competitive market the product are homogeneuos

c. Monopolistic competition is similar to oligopoly because both market structures are characterized by strategic interaction between firms in the market

d. Monopolistic competition is similar to perfect competition because both market structures are characterized by perfectly elastic demand curves for firms.

INCORRECT

Under monopositic competition If the demand were inelastic firms will increase the price as much as they can until demand <u>becomes elastic </u> but it may or not be perfectly elastic

Under perfect competition the demand curve is <u>entirely elastic.</u>

It is calculated with the formula,

= (Sales - Variable Costs) / (Sales - Variable Costs - fixed costs)
