Consider the weekly market for gyros in a popular neighborhood close to campus. Suppose this market is operating in long-run competitiveequilibrium with many gyro vendors in the neighborhood, each offering basically the same gyros. Due to the structure of the market, the vendors actas price takers and each individual vendor has no market power.The following graph displays the supply (S = MC) and demand (D) curves in the weekly market for gyros.Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the market price and quantity that will result from competition.Competitive Market4.0S-MC3530X2.01.51.0+20 30PRICE (Dollars per gyra)5.00.5RICE (Dollars per gyro)05.04.54.03.53.02.5Now assume that one of the gyro vendors successfully petitions the neighborhood development board to obtain exclusive rights to sell gyros in theneighborhood.
