FINANCIAL MARKET: A market that trades financial assets. Financial assets are the legal claims on the real assets in our economy and include such notable items as corporate stocks and bonds, government securities, and money. Without financial markets our economy would find it almost impossible to accumulate the funds needed for investment in big, expensive capital projects.

MONOPSONISTIC COMPETITION: A market structure characterized by a large number of small buyers, that purchase but not identical inputs, relative freedom of entry into and exit out of the industry, and extensive knowledge of prices and technology. Monopsonistic competition is the somewhat obscure and seldom discussed buying counterpart to an monopolistic competition seller that controls the selling side of a market. Whereas monopolistic competition is most relevant to product markets, monopsonistic competition is most relevant to factor markets.

MARGINAL UTILITY AND DEMAND

An explanation of the law of demand and the negatively-sloped demand curve based on utility analysis and the law of diminishing marginal utility. The law of diminishing marginal utility states that marginal utility declines as consumption increases. Because demand price depends on the marginal utility obtained from a good, price also declines as consumption increases, meaning price and quantity demanded are inversely related, which is the law of demand.
