If we used the retail method to estimate the ending inventory first we get the given of the problem that can be used in solving.
Given
Sales - 200,000
Goods available for sale - 261,000 (cost) & 450,000 (retail)
First, we need to get the cost of retail ratio. the formula is
Cost to Retail ratio= Cost/ Retail
261,000
CRR= ------------- = 0.58
450,000
Next is to get the ending inventory by following this steps
Cost Retail
Cost of Goods Available for Sale $261,000 $450,000
- Sales $200,000
------------------
Ending Inventory $250,000
x Cost to Retail Ratio .58
------------------
Ending Inventory $145,000
So, the estimated ending inventory for the month of July is $145,000.
The answer to your question is "Oligopolies."
An oligopoly is a market form where a market is controlled by a few large sellers or businesses. The type of market is going to effect the price in one of two ways. The first possibility is that the few businesses will work together, or collude, in order to establish higher than normal prices. The second possibility is that there will be fierce competition between the few sellers, which will result in a high level of competition and lower prices.
