Oligopoly The market structure being considered is an oligopoly. An oligopoly occurs when there are “few sellers and interdependent price-output decisions” (Hirschey, 2009, p.500).

After I graduated high school I decided eventually to go play basketball at the local junior college and it just didn’t feel the same for me and I lost a lot of confidence in myself in about everything. For the first time in my life I quit a team which was a huge mistake and something I should have stuck out and did…
