Answer:

Monopoly will cause shortage of goods.

Step-by-step explanation:

A monopoly firm produces the level of output where the marginal cost is equal to the marginal revenue. The price is higher than the marginal cost.

This level of output is smaller than a competitive firm where the output is produced where price equals marginal cost.

This creates a shortage of goods in the market. The resources are not efficiently utilized.
