BILATERAL MONOPOLY

A market containing a single buyer and a single seller, or the combination of a monopoly market and a monopsony market. A market dominated by a profit-maximizing monopoly tends to charge a higher price. A market dominated by a profit-maximizing monopsony tends to pay a lower price. When combined into a bilateral monopoly, the buyer and seller both cannot maximize profit simultaneously and are forced to negotiate a price and quantity. Then resulting price could be anywhere between the higher monopoly price and the lower monopsony price. Where the price ends ups depends on the relative negotiating power of each side.
