the monopolist produces at a point where marginal revenue=marginal cost, he uses this quantity, and goes up vertically until the demand curve is met. This quantity is lower than a competitive equilibrium and thus, price is higher as well.
monopoly power
Monopoly has no supply curve because the monopolist does not take price as given, but set both price and quantity from the demand curve.
A monopoly is when one firm has a controlling share in the market. As such he can set the price. eBay is a monopoly Amazon WAS a monopoly but is now simply an online retailer
Price floors on some goods are set by Gov. because by doing so it will keep the price of certain goods above its equilibrium price. In other words, gov. sets a price floor to keep a minimum price for some goods. For instance, something that could cost $1 (without gov intervention), ends up costing $3 due to a price floor. There's usually a LOT of lobbying in congress to set a price floor for a specific good. Once the price floor has been set, there's usually an excess supply of the particular good or goods.
Yes, perfect competition allows the market to dictate prices where as a monopoly can set any price because there is no other alternative.
monopoly power
The difference between a monopoly market and a perfectly competitive market is that in a perfectly competitive market there are many sellers and buyers, the traded goods are homogeneous goods or the same goods and sellers are not free to set prices. whereas, a monopoly market is a market that has only one seller, so buyers have no other choice and sellers have a large influence on price changes.

In Monopoly, the starting price for an auction is typically set at the face value of the property being auctioned.

When monopoly over the market isn't existing. If anybody(actor) can set their own price for their price at a competitive level.
Yes, a monopoly is a price setter. Unlike firms in competitive markets that are price takers and must accept the market price, a monopoly has significant control over the price of its product because it is the sole provider in the market. This allows the monopolist to set prices at a level that maximizes its profits, typically above marginal cost, leading to reduced output and higher prices for consumers compared to competitive markets.
A surplus of goods occur
When a maximum price is set for a good or service, it is set below the equilibrium. This is supposed to help consumers but due to the excess demand, a black market will emerge and goods and services will be sold at black market prices (which will be higher than the maximum price or price ceiling) A minumum price is set abouve the equlibrium price. This is done to help producers, however all this will do is create an excess supply and a black market will emerge where goods will be sold at a lower price.
The presence of a monopoly typically reduces consumer surplus on a graph. This is because monopolies have the power to set higher prices and limit the quantity of goods available, leading to less surplus for consumers.
