Explain how monopoly causes an inefficient allocation of resources when the competitive firm does not even when both seek to maximize profit
Thoeries underlying the Objective of a Firm, mainly talk about the subject of Ethics in Business. Debate is going on since a long time, as to whether every Firm's Objective needs to be ETHICAL? the answer may seem as simple as "YES", but the counter arguements that follow are difficult to answer. Does a Cigratte Manufacturing Company have an ethical objective? Are Liquior Producers into Ethical Business? These Companies thrive at the cost of Consumer's Health. Nevertheless they are highly Profit Making. Coming to Profit Maximization, the question goes as to whether Profit Maximization Goal is justitfied? In a private enterprise, no one can have control over Profit maximization. If the profits are made with the use of Society's resources, such profits need to be sowed back for Societal Development. Abnormal Profits/Supernormal Profits indicate the presence of Monopoly, new entrants and market expansion can keep a check on Monopoly, which is a matter of time.

Advantages Of Monopoly* Research and Development. Supernormal Profit can be used to fund high cost capital investment spending. Successful research can be used for improved products and lower costs in the long term. E.g. Telecommunications and Pharmaceuticals. * Economies of scale. Increased output will lead to a decrease in average costs of production. These can be passed on to consumers in the form of lower prices. * International Competitiveness. A domestic firm may have Monopoly power in the domestic country but face effective competition in global markets. E.g. British Steel * A firm may become a monopoly through being efficient and dynamic. A monopoly is thus a sign of success not inefficiency.Source: Economic Help

Other than this, when the price is at the upper proportion of monopoly demand curve, the price is always higher and the monopoly firm will earn supernormal profit. Any answer which is reasonable will be accept.
In a monopoly, demand does not equal marginal revenue because the monopoly firm has the power to set prices higher than the marginal revenue. This discrepancy occurs because the monopoly has control over the market and can influence prices to maximize profits, unlike in a competitive market where prices are determined by supply and demand forces.
