उत्तर
- In a perfectly competitive market, the seller is a price taker.
- In perfect competition, there are many sellers and purchasers in the market, and all firms sell identical (homogeneous) products. Because each firm’s output is small in comparison to the entire market supply, no single seller can influence market price.
- Because all businesses sell the same commodities, no company can differentiate its product sufficiently to demand a higher price, requiring every seller to be a price taker.
