Anushka, the meaning of premium is the surcharge or additional charge. But the question is that premium over what? The firms do not charge premium over short run and long run competitive prices but they can. The reason is that if the charge premium over short run and long run competitive prices then there is scope for entry of other firms. Here, the higher prices induce the other firms to enter which can reduce the market share and profit of the existing firms. Therefore, they charge premium over only their long run average cost and less than the short run and long run competitive prices to prevent the entry of other firms.
