 <span>There was the Sherman Act, the first of the anti-trust laws, which disallowed monopolies, and price fixing. to ensure the consumer a fair price by preventing one company from controlling an entire market, thereby insuring a particular product would need to be priced competitively. 
There was also the Interstate Commerce Act which prohibited the railroads from both price gouging and price discrimination, ie. charging more for smaller loads and shorter distances, which greatly affected small business like farmers, who couldn't afford to pay more for less, and big businesses were paying less for more. Sound familiar? This Act forced railroads to have one fair rate applying to everyone, and it must be posted for all to see.</span>

Suppose that identical twin eye doctors work across the hall from each other. Even their parents have trouble telling them apart
suter [353]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The statement is false: because

As provided the doctors are identical and even there parents cannot differentiate properly and are mistaken sometimes.

As the doctors practice across the hall, that is the same place, any customer if there is an increase in fee of Doctor 1 will substitute his doctor, into another, as both are common with knowledge, and practice.

This will lead to fall of customers or patients at a change of fees, to another doctor.

Thus the price elasticity of demand is infinite, as all customers might be loosed.

Therefore, the statement is false.
