So here we've got a couple of rapid fire multiple choice questions about microeconomic principles.
00:05
Two competitors.
00:07
That's the first thing.
00:08
Two competitors is what an economy would call an oligopoly, right? because the monopoly means zero competitors, right? zero competitors.
00:23
And the other options of competition or monopolistic competition require many competitors, right? in a competitive market, either perfectly or imperfectly competitive, right, sorry, in a competitive market, whether it's perfectly competitive or monopolistically competitive, there are many, many, many competitors.
00:54
So for one, it is oligopoly, right? that describes an industry with a small number of firms who might compete or not with each other in a variety of different ways.
01:06
Two, so we have an oligopoly, and we're asking about oligopoly profits, right? and the intuition is that this should be between monopoly and competition.
01:24
Competition.
01:25
An oligopoly is like a little bit of competition.
01:29
So you're not the extreme case of a monopoly.
01:31
You're not extreme case of a competition.
01:35
So here we have zero profit in competition, right? that's what all the profit gets driven out...
