Industry structure is often measured by computing the Four-Firm Concentration Ratio. Suppose you have an industry with 20 firms and the CR is 30%. How would you describe this industry? Suppose the demand for the product rises and pushes up the price for the good. What long-run adjustments would you expect following this change in demand? What does your adjustment process imply about the CR for the industry? |

The auto industry is probably a good model for your scenario. 40 years ago there were four domestic auto makers with one selling greater than 50% of the cars. Oligopoly right? Is that true today? What adjustments could GM have made to retain a greater market share? |
