Semi-Salt Industries began its operation in 1975 and remains the only firm in the world that produces and sells commercial-grade polyglutamate.

Despite the absence of patent protection, Semi-Salt has averaged accounting profits of 5.5 percent on investment since it began producing polyglutamate—a rate comparable to the average rate of interest that large banks paid on deposits over this period. Do you think Semi-Salt is earning monopoly profits? Why?

Lyft launched its IPO on April 1st 2019 with a share price of $72. Before the IPO, Lyft’s board of directors was likely trying to decide how to compensate CEO Logan Green to provide an incentive for him to increase the firm’s performance and share price after it went public.
