In a perfectly competitive market, firms are price-takers, meaning that they must accept the market price for their product. This is because there are so many firms in the market that any one firm&#8217;s output is a small fraction of the total market output. As a result, a firm cannot increase its sales by lowering its price, and it cannot decrease its costs by raising its price.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monopolistic competition<\/strong> is a market structure in which there are many buyers and sellers of a differentiated product. A differentiated product is one that is perceived by consumers as being different from the products of other firms.
