These data imply Multiple Choice O that market power is greatest in industry B. that market power is greatest in industry A. Q nothing about the degree of concentration across the three industries. O that markset power is greatest in industry C. You are told that the four-firm concentration ratic in an industry is 80. Based on this information you can conclude that Multiple Choice O the four largest firms account for 80 percent of industry sales. O this industry's market structure is monopolistic competition. O each of the four largest firms accounts for 20 percent of industry sales. O each of the top four firms has, on average, 80 percent of industry sales. Market Share (%) The industry characterized by these data is Multiple Choice O a monopolistically competitive industry. a purely competitive industry. an oligopoly. O @ pure monopoly. Suppose that Firm A in this table was found guilty of antitrust violations and split into two firms with equal market share.

If this is a sequential game and X moves first, the most likely profit is Multiple Choice O $625,000 for firm X and $625,000 for firm Y. O $725,000 for firm X and $475,000 for firm Y.

Assume that firm B adopts a low-price strategy; firm A maintains a high-price itrategy. Compared to the results from a high-price strategy for both firms, firm B will now Multiple Choice O gain $75 million in profit and firm A will lose $50 million in profit O gain $50 million in profit and firm A will lose $50 million in profit.
