Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The soft drink industry is an example of differentiated oligopoly because each firm produces a slightly different product, such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Dr. Pepper, which allows them to have some degree of market power and control over pricing. The aluminum and steel industries are examples of homogeneous oligopolies, as their products are largely undifferentiated. Retail stores in large cities are typically monopolistically competitive markets, rather than oligopolies.
