Question

how much influence does an individual seller in a perfectly competitive market have on the market price?
no influence, as the price is determined by the market.
moderate influence, depending on market share.
influence only during peak production periods.
significant influence, as they control production.

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market, there are many identical sellers, no barriers to entry, and all products are homogeneous. Individual sellers are price takers, meaning the market price is set by the overall supply and demand of the entire market, not any single seller.

Answer:

No influence, as the price is determined by the market.
