Explanation:
price is higher and scale of production is lower under monopolistic competition than perfect competition
Suppliers in monopolistically competitive firms will produce below their capacity. Because monopolistic firms set prices higher than marginal costs, consumer surplus is significantly less than it would be in a perfectly competitive market. This leads to deadweight loss and an overall decrease in economic surplus.
