There are many general factors that influence the price in
different market structures. The first general factor is the
presence of the number of sellers in the market. A presence of huge
number of sellers in the perfect competition makes the firms to be
price takers and firms have no control on the price. But, in
monopoly, there is one seller and that firm has the control upon
the price. The second factor is the presence of entry barriers. A
higher entry barrier causes the price to be at a higher level. It
can be seen in the monopoly and oligopoly market structure where
the entry barriers are very high. The third factor is
differentiation of the product in a market. In monopolistic
competition, products are strongly differentiated and it makes the
firms to put higher prices. But, it cannot be done in perfect
competition. The fourth factor is exclusive control upon the
resources. A higher degree of control upon the resources, or
3exclusive rights to the technology, invention and other
copyrights, causes the price to increase and makes the firms to
exert market power. The fifth factor is the formation of cartel,
price fixing or collusion that also leads to increase in price.
These general factors influence price.
