Study Notes
Applied Economics - Various Market Structures
- This module covers different market structures, including monopoly, monopolistic competition, perfect competition, and oligopoly.
- A market is a place where buyers and sellers exchange goods and services.
- Market structures are crucial for analyzing business environments and strategic decision-making, which encompass both economic and marketing perspectives.
- Key aspects of market structures include the relationship between sellers and buyers, product differentiation, the number of companies, ease of market entry/exit, market shares of large firms, customer loyalty, and the impact of advertising and marketing.
- Monopoly: A single seller controls the entire market for a specific product with no close substitutes. Barriers to entry and exit are high.
- Reasons for monopolies: ownership of essential resources; economies of scale; government regulations (e.g., patents, copyrights).
- Monopolistic Competition: Many sellers offer similar but distinct products. Products may differ in branding, style, features, location, or price. There is relatively easy entry/exit for firms.
- Examples: breakfast cereals, restaurants, clothing brands.
- Perfect Competition: Many sellers offer identical, standardized products. They can easily enter/exit the market. There are no significant barriers and perfect knowledge.
- Examples: agricultural markets, certain commodities.
- Oligopoly: A small number of large firms dominate the market for similar products or services. Entry is difficult due to high barriers. Firms are interdependent: one firm's actions significantly impact other firms.
- Examples: automobiles, mobile phone services, gas.
