 Monopoly

 Producers have a degree of control over price.
Monopolistic Competition
Monopolistically competitive markets have the following
characteristics:
 Product differentiation
 Many firms
 No entry and exit cost in the long run
 Independent decision making
 Some degree of market power
Major characteristics
 In many markets, such as toothpastes and toilet
paper, producers practice product differentiation by
altering the physical composition of products, using
special packaging, or simply claiming to have superior
products based on brand images or advertising.
Examples
 An oligopoly is a market structure in which a few
firms dominate. When a market is shared between a
few firms, it is said to be highly concentrated.
