ASSIGNMENT
1. Identify the business and determine the general type of market structure—perfectly competitive, monopolistically competitive, oligopoly, or monopoly.
Let’s look at one of the listed firms called Tata Consultancy Services.
The business that they service is software support, outsourcing projects, software development, infrastructure support, data base support and other Information technology related services. They started this business as a small concern. Currently standing, they are one of the giants in this industry. Their market structure is now spread throughout the entire world. They are not limited to just one geographical location of operation. They are spread worldwide. The market structure is so huge, that it does not come under a single person responsible for it. Different people are given different responsibilities based on the geographical location of operation.
2. Name the attributes of this business that you believe determine its market structure.
The attribute of the business that defines that market structure is how well you service your customer, and to what extent you have your customer happy and satisfied. It is a customer based service industry. If your customers are happy, then your market structure will grow gigantically according to it.
3. Identify the possible reasons for which this firm follows this type of market structure.
