FOUR MARKET MODELS

Oligopoly

Characteristics of Oligopolies: FOUR MARKET MODELS Perfect Competition Monopolistic Competition Pure Monopoly Oligopoly Characteristics of Oligopolies: A Few Large Producers (Less than 10) Identical or Differentiated Products High Barriers to Entry Control Over Price (Price Maker) Mutual Interdependence Firms use Strategic Pricing Examples: OPEC, Cereal Companies, Car Producers

HOW DO OLIGOPOLIES OCCUR? Oligopolies occur when only a few large firms start to control an industry. High barriers to entry keep others from entering. Types of Barriers to Entry 1. Economies of Scale Ex: The car industry is difficult to enter because only large firms can make cars at the lowest cost 2. High Start-up Costs 3. Ownership of Raw Materials

The study of how people behave in strategic situations Game Theory The study of how people behave in strategic situations An understanding of game theory helps firms in an oligopoly maximize profit.

Why learn about game theory? Oligopolies are interdependent since they compete with only a few other firms. Their pricing and output decisions must be strategic as to avoid economic losses. Game theory helps us analyze their strategies.

Without talking, write down your choice Game Theory Matrix You and your partner are competing firms. You have one of two choices: Price High or Price Low. Without talking, write down your choice Firm 2 High Low   Both High = $20 Each Low = $30 High = 0 High Firm 1 High = 0 Low = $30 Both Low= $10 each Low

Game Theory Matrix Firm 2 Firm 1 Notice that you have an incentive to collude but also an incentive to cheat on your agreement Firm 2 High Low   Both High = $20 Each Low = $30 High = 0 High Firm 1 High = 0 Low = $30 Both Low= $10 each Low

Extra Credit Student 2 Student 1 Given a chance to win extra credit, each student has one of two choices: High or Low Student 2 High Low   Low= +0 High=+20 Bonus High Both High= +5 Student 1 Low= +0 Bonus High=+20 Bonus Both Low= +10 Low DO NOT WRITE ON NOTES

Both Confess= 10 days in ISR each The Prisoner’s Dilemma Charged with a crime, each prisoner has one of two choices: Deny or Confess Prisoner 2 Deny Confess   Both Deny = 5 days in ISR Confess = Free Deny =20 days ISR Deny Prisoner 1 Confess = Free Deny = 20 days ISR Both Confess= 10 days in ISR each Confess

What is each firm’s dominant strategy? The Dominant Strategy is the best move to make regardless of what your opponent does What is each firm’s dominant strategy? Firm 2 No Dominant Strategy High Low   High $100, $50 $50, $90 Firm 1 $80, $40 $20, $10 Low

What is each player’s dominant strategy? Video: Split or Steal What is each player’s dominant strategy? Firm 2 Advertise Don’t Advertise   Advertise $50, $50 $100, $10 Firm 1 $10, $100 $75, $75 Don’t Advertise

What Have We Learned Oligopolies must use strategic pricing (they have to worry about the other guy) Oligopolies have a tendency to collude to gain profit. (Collusion is the act of cooperating with rivals in order to “rig” a situation) Collusion results in the incentive to cheat. Firms make informed decisions based on their dominant strategies
