Answer 1

1. GAME THEORY IS OFTEN USED TO EXPLAIN OLIGOPOLY MARKETS . THIS IS SO BECAUSE WHEN THE FIRM GET INTO ILLEGEAL AGREEMENTS OR PRICE FIXING BEHAVIOURS SO IN THIS MARKET GAME THEORY HELPS TO PREDICT THE OUTCOMES .

2. ECONOMIES OF SCALE IS ACHIVIED BY PRODUCING LARGE QUANTITES .WHEN WITH LESSER INPUT COSTS LARGE UNITS OF GOODS ARE PRODUCED SO THE PURPOSE IS ACHIEVED .

3.AN OLIGOPOLISTIC MARKET HAS SMALL NUMBER OF RIVAL FIRMS AND EACH IS LARGE RELATIVE TO THE MARKET. IN THIS TYPE OF MARKET SELLERS ARE VERY LESS ,BARRIWERS ON ENTRY AND EXIT ARE THERE . SO EACH FIRM INFLUNCES THE MARKET .EACH AND EVERY FIRM PRODUCES A BIG AMOUNT OF SHARE FOR THE MARKET , SO SLIGHT CHANGE IN THE BEHAVIOUR OF ONE FIRM WILL AFFECT THE MARKET SHARES OF OTHER FIRMS WHICH ARE RIVALS .
