Amonopoly is an inefficient way to produce a product because

The output produced is less than the socially optimal level.

Explanation:

A monopoly market has a single producer selling a product with no close substitutes. The firm is a price maker and has a downward-sloping curve. The firm is able to maximize profits by producing at the level where the marginal revenue is the marginal cost.  

In perfect competition, the profit-maximizing level of output is where the marginal cost is equal to price. This output level is a socially optimal level.  

The monopoly output is less than the socially optimal level of output that is why it is inefficient.  

the answer is true
