Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

While firms in monopolistic competition do not produce an identical product, such as perfectly competitive firms do, they face the same problem other competitive firms face: freedom of entry. When firms in monopolistic competition are making an economic profit, other firms enter the market. Entry decreases the demand for the products of the existing firms and thereby decreases their economic profit. Firms will continue to enter the market until the economic profit equals zero.
