Pure Competition:• There are two extreme forms of market structure:
monopoly and, its opposite, perfect competition. • Perfect competition is characterized by many
buyers and sellers, many products that are similar in nature and, as a result, many substitutes.
• In a perfectly competitive market, should a single firm decide to increase its selling price of a good, the consumers can just turn to the nearest competitor for a better price.
