    c. because P > MC, a basic condition for efficiency is violated.

    Explanation:

    An unregulated monopoly is a market in which monopoly holders have control over goods and services, giving them the ability to do whatever they like. Under unregulated monopoly, having a free market is impossible as price gouging is always evident.

    In unregulated monopoly a basic condition for efficiency is violated because price is greater than marginal cost (P > MC).

    Where P is the price and MC is the marginal cost of goods.
