IMPERFECT COMPETITION

Market Structure (FIRM - FRESH HEALTHY VENDING FRANCHISE)

Some firms have a large share of the market while others are just starting. A firm can often create a brand name which gives them market power. Market power is defined as the ability to raise prices without losing all demand. Since you are analyzing franchise firms, we can conclude that the brand name is somewhat established. Write a 2- to 3-page paper about the following issues:

  1. What type of market do you think your franchise operates? What type of competition does your firm face? Who are some competitors? (Even if you said your firm is a monopoly, think of some subsitutes.)
  2. How do you think your firm can increase its market power?

The government often has two conflicting roles. It protects consumers by keeping prices fair andpromotes a free market (entry of firms). Suppose your firm has a special patent. Do you think patent licenses should expire? Be sure to support your argument with references.
