Description

Four sessions on what happens when a market goes from many sellers to one.

A heat wave hits Corbin Falls and leaves a single ice seller. Your student calculates profit at every price point — and finds something most people do not expect, which makes the closing argument genuinely harder than it first looks.

The competitive apple market from Unit 1 comes back as the benchmark for what normal competition looks like, so the contrast is concrete rather than theoretical.

Closes with a both-sides argument scored on how fairly each case is made. You take the other side.
