Monopolistic competitive does not engage in price discrimination because it is not the sole producer of the product. when there are high fixed cost the average total cost is higher and it has nothing to do with demand function. Barriers to entry help in sustaining long run economic profits. Legal restrictions allow the firm to become a monopoly. The correct choice is product differentiation because by selling differentiated products manufacturer can establish brand image and have a market power due to which it can charge its own price according to the downward sloping demand function.
Select product differentiation.

suppose that the market for product x is characterized by a typical, downward-sloping, linear demand curve and a typical , upward-sloping, linear supply curve. suppose the price of supply is 0.7. will the dead weight loss form a $3 tax per unit be smaller if the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is 0.6 or if the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is 1.5?

the answer is not D
If a given product has a diagonal downward-sloping demand curve, then Ed will: O vary throughout the range of the curve. O be the same at each point on the curve. O be more elastic with a lower price. O be identical to the slope of the demand curve.

Suppose a firm has market power and faces a downward-sloping demand curve for its product, and its marginal cost curve is upward sloping. If the firm reduces its price, then A. producer surplus increases due to new buyers, but the producer surplus from existing customers declines due to the lower price. B. the sum of producer and consumer surplus remains the same, but surplus value is transferred from the producer to consumers. C. the change in producer surplus is transferred...

The actual price must be lower that the equilibrium price. The quantity demanded is higher than the equilibrium quantity.

3. Suppose a straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve shifts right due to an increase in consumer preferences. Is the price elasticity of demand higher, lower, or the same between any two prices on the new (higher) demand curve than on the old (lower) demand curve?
