"Curve" and "bend" are sometimes used to mean similar things, yet both words have slightly different applications. "Curve" usually describes a smooth, even arching of a line. It often refers to something intentional (usually "bend" is used to describe something which was done accidentally such as in "I bent the hood of my car"). "Curve" is usually not used as a verb, whereas "bend" usually is. Example: "He bent the iron bar". Curve is used more often as a noun. Curve and bend can be used to describe similar things under limited contexts such as "There was a bend (or curve) in the road".

Like the competitive seller, the pure monopolist will maximize profit by equating marginal revenue and marginal cost. Barriers to entry may permit a monopolist to acquire economic profit even in the long run.
