This Month's Feature Activity With the Microsoft anti-trust trial and mergers happening everyday, the issue of monopolies has never been more present in the popular press. When we think of monopolies, we think of robber-barrons and evil. In a new, downloadable Virtual Business activity, students manage stores in a competitive economy and a monopolistic one. Monopoly Pricing Students discover what a monopoly is and how it affects prices. They learn why business owners benefit from a monopoly and how consumers can be harmed.
Students compete to spend the least amount of money to obtain specific market research information.
