3 0

Answer:

The price will be higher and output lower in absence of competition.

Explanation:

When the market does not have enough competition, it provides a certain degree of market power to the existing producers. They are able to regulate prices and output.  

It is likely that the suppliers will provide a fewer quantities of goods at a higher price, in order to maximize their profits. The socially optimal level of output will not be produced in the market.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

3400, Rise, C

Explanation:

1. Since there are just 3 firms and two already has a sum total of 70% (40+30), the third firm will have a market share of 30%

HHI= 40^{2}+ 30^{2}+30^{2}\\

HHI= 1600+900+900

HHI= 3400

2. Abe's Bikes with 30% leaves the market, if the two firms were to share Abe's market share equally (15+15), it will leave Firm A with 55% (40+15) and Firm B with (30+15) 45%

Therefore,

HHI= 55^{2}+45^{2}

HHI=3025+2025

HHI= 5050

A rise in HHI

3. C

Bess [88]

For example, If you have a choice of working at a company for salary of $10000 per year or starting your own business that is expected to earn $15000 per year, the opportunity cost of choosing to start your own business is the $10000 per year from the job that is given up.
