| | Monopoly profit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Monopoly profit is a type of economic profit, that is, it is a profit greater than the normal profit that is typical in a perfectly competitive industry. |  | | Under normal market conditions for a monopolist, this price will be higher than the equilibrium price (which is the price at which marginal cost for the producer equals marginal benefit for the consumer). |  | | In economics, a firm is said to reap monopoly profits when a lack of viable market competition allows it to set its prices above the equilibrium price for a good or service without losing profits to competitors. |

| | Profit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Economic profit is sometimes referred to as supernormal profit and accounting profit as normal profit. |  | | Profitability refers to the amount of profit received relative to the amount invested, often measured by a rate of profit or rate of return on investment. |  | | The social profit from a firm's activities is the normal profit plus or minus any externalities that occur in its activity. |

 | | Normal profit is the amount of profit that must be generated by the firm in question so that owners are deterred from liquidating their assets and investing their equity in an alternative investment. |  | | Your firm's accountant calculates that its annual profit is $10,000. |  | | It is for this reason normal profits is really a cost that must be covered by revenues. |

 | | This profit is an addition to the normal profit which is already included in total cost. |  | | When total revenue is equal to total cost, the profit is zero and termed as 'normal profit'. |  | | Profit is also maximum when marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue and no further profitable movement of production is possible. |

| | Profit |
 | | After one includes implicit costs as part of costs, an accurate measurement of profit is impossible, which is a major reason why accountants do not try to measure the economic concept of profit. |  | | The assumption that firms attempt to maximize profits is inconsistent with the underlying methodology of microeconomics, which assumes that all decision-makers are individuals. |  | | The economic definition of profit is the difference between revenue and the opportunity cost of all resources used to produce the items sold. |

 | | Normal profit is the amount which has to be added to cost to cover the risks and losses caused by "Acts of God" and the losses inevitable in adjusting production to consumption by changeable human beings. |  | | If consumer buying fails to absorb the normal productive capacity of the nation, then a part of our productive machinery is idle, a part of our capital is idle, and industry has to earn a return upon the entire investment in it from the sale of only a part of what it can produce. |  | | So long as this relationship is normal, it is possible to pay dividends upon the total investments of the country and to keep our extremely complicated industrial machinery in normal operation. |
