 Monopoly Price - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Monopoly price: A monopoly price in economics is the price set by a monopolist, a sole producer in a market, to maximize profit. Unlike competitive markets, the monopolist can restrict output to create scarcity, raising prices above marginal cost. This leads to higher profits but can result in reduced consumer welfare and allocative inefficiency. See also monopolies, competition, marginal costs. See also Monopolies, Oligopolies, Cartels, Markets, Price.
