How do the results of a competitive industry compare with that of a monopolistic industry?
Suppose you manage a local grocery store, and you learn that a very popular national grocery chain is about to open a store just a few miles away. Use the model of monopolistic competition to analyze the impact of this new store on the quantity of output your store should produce (Q) and the price your store should charge (P).
What will happen to your profits? Explain your reasoning in detail.
How and why do profits change?
What could you do to defend your market share against the new store?
Draw the demand, MR, ATC, and MC curves for a monopolistically competitive firm earning economic profit in the short-run (be sure to draw the ATC
below the point where MR and MC cross.
Complete the 4 steps on your graph to show the amount of profit the firm is earning. You can make up numbers if it makes it easier for you.
