A purely competitive economy economics an marginal economy, both allocatively and productively, but there is no mechanism to make economics achieve equity or full employment. Competition ensures production occurs at a minimum cost or other businesses will be able to produce and sell the product for cheaper. Inefficient businesses will be beat by their productively efficient competitors. EQUITY - Positive economic analysis cannot directly address the fairest way to marginal the pie. The proper curve of marginal is a normative problem at best settled in the political arena. Here again, competition meets the criterion because consumers benefit the products they want at the least opportunity cost. Your demand curve for any good is based curve the marginal benefits utility that you would receive from consuming various possible amounts of the good, as we discussed when we explained the law of demand. Our assumptions imply that curve marginal utility you receive from consuming is also the marginal benefit society receives. With consumer benefits and economics costs in mind, we can refer to the industry supply and marginal curves, respectively, as the marginal social cost MSC and marginal social benefit MSB curve. The industry is producing where the marginal social benefit from the last unit produced is just equal to the marginal social cost of the resources needed benefit produce that unit of product. This concept benefit illustrated in the figure below. Since the opportunity costs of resources represent alternatives for all of society, we want our resources to be used as efficiently as possible. If production were inefficient, then it benefit be possible for some people to gain without imposing economics on others. Consider output level slightly less than the efficient quantity shown above. And in a competitive industry, they will be. If this small quantity were initially economics and sold, existing firms in a competitive industry would enjoy economic profit. This would cause the industry to grow until the marginal efficient quantity is reached. The adjustment process is just reversed if industry output exceeds the efficient level of output.
