1)The correct option is b. a single buyer confronts a single seller.

A bilateral monopoly is a special case of a monopoly where there are only one producer and one buyer in the market (a monopsony). In this situation, the monopolist wants to charge as high a price as possible while the buyer wants to pay as low a price as possible.

2)

Option (c) one firm is correct.

There is an existence of only one company in a model of monopoly. Other firms cannot exist in this market as they face legal and technical obstacles.
