Monopolistic
Competition
What is Monopolistic
Competition?
 Many small sellers
 Differentiated product
 Easy entry and exit
Differentiated product
 Product differentiation: the process of
creating real or apparent differences between
goods and services => price maker
 A differentiated product has close, but not
perfect substitutes.
 Firms center on non- price competition in
addition to price competition.
 Each firm is so small relative to the total
market that its pricing decisions have a
negligible effect on the market price.
Many Small Sellers
Easy Entry and Exit
 Not as easy as in Perfect Competition because
of product differentiation
Competition with Differentiated Products
The Monopolistically Competitive Firm in the
Short Run:
- Each firm in monopolistic competition faces
a downward-sloping demand curve.
- The monopolistically competitive firm
follows the monopolist's rule for maximizing
profit
1. MR = MC
2. It sets the price using the demand curve
to ensure that consumers will buy the amount
produced.
- The monopolistically competitive firm is
earning a profit or loss by comparing price
and average total cost.
1. If P > ATC, the firm is earning a profit.
2. If P < ATC, the firm is earning a loss.
3. If P = ATC, the firm is earning zero
economic profit.
Figure
Short-run
The Monopolistic Competition
in the Long-Run
_ When firms in monopolistic competition
are making profit, new firms have an
incentive to enter the market.
+ The demand curve faced by each firm
shifts to the left.
_ When firms in monopolistic competition
are incurring losses, firms in the market will
have an incentive to exit.
+ The demand curve for each firm shifts
to the right.
_ The process of exit and entry continues until
firms are earning zero profit.
+ Price is equal to average total cost and the
firm is earning zero economic profit.
Long-run
Example:
Advantages of Monopolistic Competition
1. The Promotion of Competition (lack of Barriers to Entry) .
2. Differentiation Brings Greater Consumer Choice and
Variety
- This provides greater choice and variety of products and
services for consumers to purchase .
3. Product and Service Quality – Development
- Firms improve product quality in order to gain economic
profit.
4.Consumers Become More Knowledgable of Products
- They can gain an understanding of the unique features
and aspects that certain products have compared to that of
others.
Disadvantages of Monopolistic Competition
1. They Can be Wasteful -- Liable of Excess Capacity
- Firms don't produce enough output to efficiently
lower the average cost and benefit from economies of
scale.
2. Allocatively Inefficient
- It is allocatively inefficient as not enough of the
product gets produced for society to benefit .
3.Higher Prices
- A higher price is charged than would be the case
under Perfect Competition.
4. Advertising – Wasteful.
