Regulate the firm's pricing behaviour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The government does not want to split the business down into smaller pieces but needs to provide the supplier with the productive amount, so the Government regulates the expense conduct of the product.

A price limit that a monopoly can charge the consumer is a government-imposed example of the way monopoly behavior can be regulated. This will allow the organization to produce productive volumes.
