    The correct answer is C. Influence the market price of the good as it sells ...

    Explanation:

    A company is said to have market power when it can increase and maintain the price of its products or services above the level that would exist in a perfectly competitive market.

    Due to the price increase, demand may decrease. Therefore, market power can lead to a reduction in the quantity produced (and sold). Which entails a reduction in the welfare of society.
