Answer: threat of new entrants will prevent the prices from rising above the competitive level.
Explanation:
A contestable market has competition such that sellers cannot unilaterally decide to sell at a certain price. They have to sell at a competitive price that is set by the market to ensure that goods are allocated efficiently.
If the prices attempt to rise above this competitive level, new sellers will enter the market so as to make a profit which would have the effect of driving the price back down to where it was and even lower if even more sellers come in. The price is therefore maintained to ensure that this does not happen.
Answer:
B. The difference between sales revenues and the costs associated with those sales

Consumer price index measures the changes in price level of a basket of goods.
If consumer price index falls if means price level has fallen , goods become cheaper and the same amount of money can buy more quantities of goods and services.
Conversely if consumer price index rises, price level has increased, goods and services become more expensive and more amount of money would be needed to maintain the same level of consumption.
CPI is calculated as cost of basket of goods in a given year / cost of basket of goods in a base year
