IMPERFECT COMPETITION: Any markets or industries that do not match the criteria for perfect competition. The key characteristics of perfect competition are: (1) a large number of small firms, (2) identical products sold by all firms, (3) freedom of entry into and exit out of the industry, and (4) perfect knowledge of prices and technology. These four characteristics are essentially impossible to match in the real world.

Topic: Summary <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

In this unit, you should have learned something about:
  1. How numerical measurements are used to indicate the health and well-being of the economy.

  3. That GDP seeks to measure ALL production of goods and services in the economy at its total market value.
  4. That GDP only measures the market value of final goods and services, because the cost of intermediate goods is included in the price of the finished product.
  5. That GDP measures the flow of current production that takes place during a specific period, usually one year.
  6. The difference flows, which are measures that take place over a period of time, and stocks, which are measures that exist at a point in time.
