butalik [34]4 years ago

Answer: AGREE

Explanation:

A Monopoly faces no competition and are the only sellers of the product they sell. If firms in an industry successfully engage in collusion, the resultant effect will definitely be not unlike a Monopoly because they will set prices as a single firm, control output as a single firm and essentially run the market as a single firm.

They will sell at a rate where the Marginal Revenue curve will be below the demand curve. This will mean a higher price than a competitive market which was probably the main incentive for collusion.

A recent example would be the collusion between BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen, to hinder technological progress in improving the quality of vehicle emissions in order to reduce the cost of production and maximize profits. Thankfully this was busted by the European Commission in 2019.

Katarina [22]

Fiscal policy involves government changes to spending or taxation to affect the economy.

<h3>What is meant by fiscal policy?</h3>

Contractionary means the raise in taxes and the decrease in government spending. The expansionary policy is the opposite of this. Hence we have to say that Fiscal policy involves government changes to spending or taxation to affect the economy.
