Control over price None Some, but within rather narrow limits Limited by mutual inter-dependence; considerable with collusion Considerable Conditions of entry Very easy, no obstacles Relatively easy Significant obstacles Blocked Nonprice competition None Considerable emphasis on advertising, brand names, trademarks Typically a great deal, particularly with product differentiation Mostly public relation advertising Examples Agriculture Retail trade, dresses, shoes Steel, auto, farm implements Local utilities 10 —

An Introduction to Pure Monopoly • Single seller – a sole producer • No close substitutesAn Introduction to Pure Monopoly • Single seller – a sole producer • No close substitutes – unique product • Price maker – control over price • Blocked entry – strong barriers to entry block potential competition • Non-price competition – mostly PR or advertising the product LO 1 Public utility companies • Natural Gas • Electric • Water Near monopolies • Intel • Wham-O Professional sports teams 10 —

Output and Price Determination LO 2 Steps for Graphically Determining the Profit-Maximizing Output,  Profit-Maximizing Price,Output and Price Determination LO 2 Steps for Graphically Determining the Profit-Maximizing Output, Profit-Maximizing Price, and Economic Profits (if Any) in Pure Monopoly Step 1 Determine the profit-maximizing output by finding where MR=MC. Step 2 Determine the profit-maximizing price by extending a vertical line upward from the output determined in step 1 to the pure monopolist’s demand curve. Step 3 Determine the pure monopolist’s economic profit by using one of two methods: Method 1. Find profit per unit by subtracting the average total cost of the profit-maximizing output from the profit-maximizing price. Then multiply the difference by the profit-maximizing output to determine economic profit (if any). Method 2. Find total cost by multiplying the average total cost of the profit-maximizing output by that output. Find total revenue by multiplying the profit-maximizing output by the profit-maximizing price. Then subtract total cost from total revenue to determine the economic profit (if any). 10 —
