Economic profit : Average Total Cost :: Market Entry : ?

Economic profit is the extra money a company makes after covering all its costs, including opportunity costs. Similarly, market entry refers to the process of a new company starting to sell goods or services in a market. Just as economic profit can attract more businesses to enter a market, the analogy suggests that market entry relates to "Economic Loss. " When a company faces economic losses, it may discourage new businesses from entering the market. For example, if a company in an oligopoly is losing money, it signals to others that the market may not be profitable, leading them to stay out.
