What example are people using for a monopoly


Posted from TSR Mobile


Sky has more than 40% market share in TV (dominant), and is the only provider of satellite TV (due to horizontal integration with BSB).

I used it in my mock with the june 2013 paper and got 88% so i might just stick to what i know if a question like that comes up again :yes:


hey, are cinema's both oligopoly - Cineworld, Vue, Odeon etc and monopolistic competition (or is it perfect competition?) for small 'art' houses cinemas (1/2)?

Hi could anyone please tell me what diagram you draw for increased labour market flexibility? Thanks!
Are monopsony's and trade unions examples of labour market failures?


Also cinema I would use for an oligopoly question as it shares the most characteristics with that.

but if you have to evaluate oligopoly, giving reasons why it may not be an oligopoly, what other market would it fit into?

Just a supply and demand with the supply becoming more elastic

Could be monopolistically competitive because there are lots of cinema firms or could be a monopoly because Odeon has 25% of market share

Labour Market Failure occurs when supply and demand don’t result in an efficient allocation of labour resources. This can be seen in instances where there is a either a surplus or a shortage of labour, as well as cases where workers are in the wrong jobs, workers are poorly/aren’t trained, and where wage rates are low.

I'm not sure on all of them but i know that Vue, Odeon and Cineworld make up 62% which is the figure you'd use to talk about oligopolies

If they are, they won't be able to respond to you now, they'll be under supervision and not have any access to the internet.
