its looking so easy question to me Monopoly means where only one product is leader no competitive of him where competition stands called perfectly competitive
Monopoly is market condition in which we have only one provider of a particular service. Perfectly competitive market A market structure in which the following five criteria are met: 1. All firms sell an identical product. 2. All firms are price-takers. 3. All firms have a relatively small market share. 4. Buyers know the nature of the product being sold and the prices charged by each firm. 5. The industry is characterized by freedom of entry and exit. in short Many buyers/Many Sellers
I agree, all relevant points there. A monopoly can be 25% of the market or it could be 100%, depends how you view it really. The competition commision in the UK look at firms with greater than 25% market share.
In monopoly Market,all the products or service are provided by one provider.However,for Perfectly competitive market,the products and service are mature and it's competition that makes them develop fast.
In Monopoly Market, one particular provider is always dominating the market. In perfect competitive market, the domination will be shared by more than one provider.
