3、y.lCountries trade in order to achieve scale economies or increasing returns in production.5Introduction（cont.）lThe Ricardian and Heckscher-Ohlin models also rely on competition to predict that all income from production is paid to owners of factors of production:no“excess”or monopoly profits exist.

4、lBut when economies of scale exist,large firms may be more efficient than small firms,and the industry may consist of a monopoly or a few large firms.lProduction may be imperfectly competitive in the sense that excess or monopoly profits are captured by large firms.6Introduction（cont.）lTwo models of

14、sell an additional unit of output the firm must lower the price of all units sold(not just the marginal one).（为了多销售一单位产出，厂商必须降低所有为了多销售一单位产出，厂商必须降低所有(而不是最后一单位而不是最后一单位)出售产品的价格出售产品的价格）The Theory of Imperfect Competition15The Theory of Imperfect CompetitionFigure 6-1:Monopolistic Pricing and Production

17、 the costs of a firm,C,take the form:C=F+c x Q (6-3)This is a linear cost function.The fixed cost in a linear cost function gives rise to economies of scale,because the larger the firms output,the less is fixed cost per unit.lThe firms average costs is given by:AC=C/Q=F/Q+c (6-4)The Theory of Imperf

19、 firm is assumed to be able to differentiate its product from its rivals.（每个厂商均能生产与竞争对手有差（每个厂商均能生产与竞争对手有差异的产品）异的产品）Each firm is assumed to take the prices charged by its rivals as given.（每个厂商把竞争对手的价格作为既定价格）（每个厂商把竞争对手的价格作为既定价格）The Theory of Imperfect Competition21lAre there any monopolistically compe

21、ons of the ModellImagine an industry consisting of a number of firms producing differentiated products（差异产品）（差异产品）.lWe expect a firm:To sell more the larger the total demand for its industrys product and the higher the prices charged by its rivals（对（对其所在产业产品的需求越大，其竞争对手制定的价格越高，其所在产业产品的需求越大，其竞争对手制定的价格

22、越高，该厂商销售的产品就越多）该厂商销售的产品就越多）To sell less the greater the number of firms in the industry and the higher its own price（其所在产业拥有的厂商越多，（其所在产业拥有的厂商越多，该厂商自身定价越高，销售的产品就越少）该厂商自身定价越高，销售的产品就越少）The Theory of Imperfect Competition23where:Q is the firms salesS is the total sales of the industryn is the number of

23、firms in the industryb is a constant term representing the responsiveness of a firms sales to its priceP is the price charged by the firm itselfA particular equation for the demand facing a firm that has these properties is:Q=S x 1/n b x(P P)(6-5)The Theory of Imperfect CompetitionP is the average p

24、rice charged by its competitors24lMarket EquilibriumlAll firms in this industry are symmetricThe demand function and cost function are identical for all firms.lThe method for determining the number of firms and the average price charged involves three steps:We derive a relationship between the numbe

25、r of firms and the average cost of a typical firm.We derive a relationship between the number of firms and the price each firm charges.We derive the equilibrium number of firms and the average price that firms charge.The Theory of Imperfect Competition251、The number of firms and average costHow do t

26、he average costs depend on the number of firms in the industry?The Theory of Imperfect CompetitionUnder symmetry,P=P,equation(6-5)tells us that Q=S/n but equation(6-4)shows us that the average cost depends inversely on a firms output.We conclude that average cost depends on the size of the market an

28、 the lower the price.lIn the monopolistic competition model firms are assumed to take each others prices as given.The Theory of Imperfect CompetitionIf each firm treats P as given,we can rewrite the demand curve(6-5)in the form:Q=(S/n+S x b x P)S x b x P (6-7)27lProfit-maximizing firms set marginal

29、revenue equal to their marginal cost,c.lThis generates a negative relationship between the price and the number of firms in the market which is the PP curve:P=c+1/(b x n)(6-10)The more firms there are in the industry,the lower the price each firm will charge.The Theory of Imperfect Competition28l3、T

30、he equilibrium number of firmslThe downward-sloping curve PP shows that the more firms,the lower the price each firm will charge.The more firms,the more competition each firm faces.lThe upward-sloping curve CC tells us that the more firms there are,the higher the average cost of each firm.If the num
