ABSTRACT

It is almost superfluous to tell the reader that it is a delusion to believe that the same should not achieve anything else for the authors than the explanation of one, but very important, emergence of the commerce economy. With regards to that, which was said earlier, this demonstration hardly requires a further explanation. It encompasses exchange in a stricter sense, as well as production and the formation of income. Now, there is surely always a price for our monopoly good that is exactly so high that the demand for it stops. If the monopolist could offset his good or even just a portion of the same at this price, then he would make a large gain; but as it stands, he would offset nothing, and his proceed is therefore zero. Nothing is more typical than one already speaking of free competition if for example only two sellers appear on the tarpaulin.
