JUSTICE UTILITY RIGHTS

As a states before perfectly
competitive markets achieve three
moral values:
They lead buyers and sellers to
exchange goods in a way that is
just.
They maximize the utility of
buyers and sellers.
They make buyers and sellers

allocate and distribute their goods
with perfect efficiency.
MONOPOLY COMPETITION
A monopoly market has one

dominant seller instead of
numerous sellers.
There exist barriers to entry
that keep companies out
A monopoly violates capitalist justice, utilitarianism and
negative rights:
It violates justice because the company charges more

for products than they know the products are worth.
It violates utilitarianism because it keeps resources out of

the market while there are shortages in supply. These
resources are diverted to markets without such shortages.
This removes the incentive to use the resources efficiently.
It violates negative rights because a monopoly keeps other

companies from entering the market and it forces buyers
to purchase goods they not want. A monopoly also forces
consumers to accept the price and quantity it charges.
OLIGOPOLISTIC
COMPETITION
Some oligopoly markets are
dominated by a few large firms.
Most oligopolies are formed via

horizontal mergers.
However, there are also other ways of competing
that aim at destroying competition itself.

MARKET MICROPROCESSOR
Ada beberapa "barriers to entry" untuk
masuk ke pasar:
Intel dan AMD memegang hak paten untuk
membuat jenis mikroprosesor yang hampir
semua komputer pribadi gunakan.
Memerlukan biaya miliaran dolar untuk

membangun fasilitas pembuatan
mikroprosesor.
Intel dan AMD sangat besar dan berpengalaman
sehingga mereka sekarang dapat membuat
mikroprosesor dengan harga yang jauh lebih
murah daripada yang dapat dilakukan oleh
perusahaan baru.
PERSAINGAN
INTEL VS AMD
Intel menginvestasikan ratusan juta dolar untuk
mengembangkan mikroprosesor jenis baru yang tidak

canggih namun masih menggunakan "teknologi x86",
yaitu "Athlon".
