Because oligopoly has firms that have dynamic pricing strategies based on the responses of their rivals. This ever changing price and output strategy depends on how rivals are respond to its own decisions and so how it should react to every possible move by the rivals. Due to this reason oligopoly has outcomes all different from each other such as competition in quantities, competition in prices, price leadership, repeated analogy, etc. Hence, a general theory cannot be developed because market dynamics are ever changing.

Is it impossible to understand criminological theory outside of the social context in which it developed? why or why not?
As you describe Paul Sweezy’s Kinked-Demand theory of oligopoly, do the following: Explain why Sweezy’s model is an illustration of how “strategy and counter-strategy” create interdependence among the large firms who dominate an oligopoly. Using Sweezy’s model, explain the reasons for changes in an oligopolist’s price elasticity of demand as the firm attempts to raise or lower its product price relative to its oligopolist competitors. Why is price competition unsuccessful in this model?
If the output effect from increased production is larger than the price effect, then an oligopolist would increase production. True False
(a) Why is it impossible for a 3 x 4 matrix A to have rank 4 and dim Nul A = 0? (b) What is the rank of a 6 x 8 matrix whose null space is three-dimensional? (c) If possible, construct a 3 x 5 matrix B such that dim Nul B =3 and rank B = 2. Explain your reasoning. (d) Construct a 4 x 3 matrix C with rank 1. It need not be complicated.

. If an economist wants to test a theory on why the price of a product like gasoline fluctuates so much, what kinds of problems might he or she face in getting information? What kinds of variables exist in the market for a product like gasoline? . Are some of the variables more important than others? Which? Why?
why would it be impossible for a ketone to have a name like 3 - methyl - 1 - hexanone

two price-taking firms compete by setting quantities of output, then Select one: O a marginal revenue is the same as the market price. b. social surplus will be maximized. O c. the market price will be climater than marginal cost. Od they will produce the same amount of output as in perfect competition. If a firm sells its output on a market that is characterized by many sellers and buyers, a differentiated product, and unlimited long run resource mobility, then...
