Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

In a competitive market, if an individual firm increases its price it will lose all of its customers, as consumers simply buy from another firm. However, if the price of the good increases for all firms some consumers will not continue to buy the good, but for many prices some consumers will continue to purchase the good.
