Question
There is no difference between perfect competition and pure competition.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
- There is a difference between perfect and pure competitiveness. Pure competition is defined as a market with a large number of customers and sellers offering homogeneous items and allowing free entry and exit.
- Perfect competition, on the other hand, is a more idealised definition that incorporates not just the characteristics of pure competition but other assumptions such as perfect knowledge and zero transaction costs, making it more limiting than pure competition.
