Thus, this week’s team deliverable focuses on pure monopoly, monopolistic competitive markets, oligopoly, and pure competition. In economics, market structure refers to the number of firms producing identical products or services. In a pure monopoly there is only one! The team pinpointed some key terms that helped us differentiate this type of market from the other three structures. A“single seller” monopoly is one where a single firm is the sole producer of a good or service. A "no close substitutes" is a company that sales a product and there is nothing in the market the can be used as a substitute, therefore everyone have only one place to go to buy the produce. The "price maker" is when a firm has control over the quantity supplied; consequently they will have control over the price of the product they are producing.

...Week 3 Learning Team B Deliverable Michelle Pata, Lynda Green, Danielle Jones, Deneese Brannan, Kamil Diamond, Shalonda Henderson ECO/561 August 18, 2014 Harry Dzakwasi Week 3 Learning Team B Deliverable This week’s learning objectives were challenging and interesting to complete. This week’s objectives also showed and helped the team be able to apply these techniques to our current organizations. There were also some struggles in understanding, but overall the objectives proved applicable to all goals within this learning team. Objective One: Determine pricing strategy to meet organizational goals Overall, the team thought this objective was interesting. The chapters laid out the different types of markets well and discussed how each was either affected by price or affected price. Shalonda feels comfortable with ways to implement nonprice barriers of entry, increase product differentiation, and reduce cost. Deneese really grasped the concept of monopoly versus oligopoly. Lynda enjoyed learning how pricing structure can help a company meet their goals and profit margin. The team had little difficulty mastering this objective. Danielle has a better understanding of what affects prices in her industry and use this knowledge to help make better purchasing decisions. Michelle stated that pricing strategies make more sense to her, from marketing strategies to determining pricing for the actual services that are provided at each of her facilities...
