标题: OG11-46 提问

46 Which of the following best completes the passage below?

.
When the products of several competing suppliers are perceived by consumers to be essentially the same, classical economics predicts that price competition will reduce prices to the same minimal levels and all suppliers' profits to the same minimal levels. Therefore, if classical economics is true, and given suppliers' desire to make as much profit as possible, it should be expected that_____

(A) in a crowded market widely differing prices will be charged for products that are essentially the same as each other

(B) as a market becomes less crowded as suppliers sr;... leave, the profits of the remaining suppliers will tend to decrease

(C) each supplier in a crowded market will try to convince consumers that its product differs significantly from its competitors' products.

(D) when consumers are unable to distinguish among the products in a crowded market, consumers will judge that the higher-priced products are of higher quality

(E) suppliers in crowded markets will have more incentive to reduce prices and thus increase sales than to introduce innovations that would distinguish their product from their competitors' products

这道题有点摸不找头脑的感觉,原文的意思虽然懂了,但是答案却无从下手,

恳请告知此题的解题思路

I would choose C.

Given that there is no way to reduce the price any lower as claimed by the argument, the only way for a company to do is to differ itself from any competition.

给你举个例子：喝矿泉水吗？能说出娃哈哈，乐百氏等等水的区别吗？有，但很少很少。于是大家都降价，降到一瓶500毫升的水卖1元时，没得降了。于是，这个说我的是“矿泉”水，那个说我“过滤技术高”，还有的说“有点甜”，都是想把自己和别人区分开。

这道题我是这样理解的，请牛人指点

题目告诉我们：如果消费者认为商品一样，则利润达到最低。

问：如果利润达到最高，应该怎样。

我们可以利用题目告诉我们的推理的逆否命题：

消费者认为一样 ---> 利润最低的逆否命题

利润最高 ---> 消费者认为不一样

那D可不可以理解为“虽然哇哈哈乐百氏在消费者眼里都一样，但是娃哈哈买1.2，乐百氏卖1块，这样消费者可会想可能娃哈哈质量好一些。”这样娃哈哈就比乐百氏多赚了2毛啊。请大家指点。

it's already given in the statement that "the products of several competing suppliers are perceived by consumers to be essentially the same", so ur assumptions don't apply in this question, i think.

但是C中说商家努力劝说消费者让其认为自己的质量是与其他不同的不也与题干中消费者essentially the same矛盾嘛？头疼Ing……

以下是引用north7896在2008-10-14 14:39:00的发言：
但是C中说商家努力劝说消费者让其认为自己的质量是与其他不同的不也与题干中消费者essentially the same矛盾嘛？头疼Ing……

我觉得不矛盾啊，"essentially the same"导致了价格和利润最低。那么如果商家想提高利润必然要打破现状啊。

我是这么想的：

当消费者认为几种同类产品基本无差异时，在这种情况下经济学家预测竞争导致这些产品的价格下降到一个同样很低的水平，同时所有商家的利润也下降到很低的水平。因此，如果经济学家的理论没错，商家要怎么做才能使其利润最大化？

原文其实假设说，价格已经在很低的水平了，低的不能再低了。如果商家想要达到利益最大化，只有两种途径1、提价（应该违背原文的意思）2、提高销量

如何来提高销量呢? 做广告呗。做广告的目的就是提高销量，那么广告的途径就是告诉消费者他们的产品与众不同。（即选项C）

我看到这题的时候，马上去联想经济原理了。然后就绕进去了！当时觉得可能和供给和需求利润有关，所谓竞争导致价格下降到minimal levels 就是均衡状态。虽然可能说的就是这个，但是做题的时候还是针对题目比较好，不要被背景知识误导了。

不知道对不对。呵呵
