Answer 1

Answer: B. receive a lower price for its product

Monopolistic competition is a market structure whereby the elements of both monopoly and competitive markets are combined. In such market structure, there are many producers in the market but they're selling differentiated products.

In this case, due to the fact that there's freedom of entry and exit, there'll be more firms coming into the market due to the supernormal profit which is made at first but in the long run, a lower price will be received for goods and services as there are many sellers in the market. Therefore, a normal profit will be made.
