For one, their may be somewhat close substitutes. Microsoft may still advertise because there is the threat of Mac OS, Unix, etc. Major League Baseball faces threats from other sports and non-pro ball.

Monopolists still need to inform their customers of new products or services, as well as maintain their brand image.

What is a basic difference between pure competition and monopolies?

The basic difference between pure competition and monopolies lies in the number of sellers and market control. In pure competition, numerous firms sell identical products, leading to price-taking behavior where no single firm can influence the market price. In contrast, a monopoly exists when a single firm dominates the market, enabling it to set prices and control supply without competition. This results in higher prices and reduced consumer choice compared to a competitive market.

What is the basic difference between pure competition and monopolies?

The basic difference between pure competition and monopolies lies in market structure and control over prices. In pure competition, many firms offer identical products, leading to price-taking behavior where no single firm can influence market prices. Conversely, a monopoly exists when a single firm dominates the market, allowing it to set prices above the competitive equilibrium and restrict output to maximize profits. This results in less consumer choice and potentially higher prices compared to a competitive market.


How did Wilson approach the problem of monopolies?
