Respuesta :

Answer:

correct option is c. (iii) only

Explanation:

  • A monopoly is when a particular company is the sole supplier of a particular item. There is no competition for a monopoly when building a good or service.
  • In a monopoly, the company determines a certain price for the good that is available to all customers. Good quantity is low and price is high (this is what makes it good).
  • The monopoly price creates fatal risk because the company forgets the transaction with customers. Deadweight loss is a potential benefit that does not go to the manufacturer or the consumer.
  • Monopolies become inefficient and less innovative over time because they do not have to compete with other producers in one market.
  • For private monopolies, complacency can create space for potential competitors to overcome barriers to entry and enter the market. In addition, long-term options in other markets come under control when the monopoly is ineffective.
