So what outcome then could be expected from duopolists? 12 竞争、垄断和卡特尔 Competition, Monopolies, and Cartels 双头可以同意垄断的结果。 The duopolists may agree on a monopoly outcome. 勾结 Collusion 两个企业就生产的数量和收取的价格达成一致 The two firms may agree on the quantity to produce and the price to charge. 卡特尔 Cartel 两个企业联合起来，协调行动。 The two firms may join together and act in unison
