Solution

The correct option is A True
True.
This is because under perfect competition, AR = MR, while under monopoly AR > MR. Even when equilibrium in both cases is struck when MR = MC, under perfect competition the price is equal to MC at the equilibrium, while, P > MC at the monopoly firm's equilibrium.
