Answer:

Oligopoly.

Explanation:

An oligopoly can be defined as a market structure comprising of a small number of firms (sellers) offering identical or similar products, wherein none can limit the significant influence of others.

Hence, it is a market structure that is distinguished by several characteristics, one of which is either similar or identical products and dominance by few firms.

The characteristics of an oligopolistic market structure are;

1. Mutual interdependence between the firms.

2. Market control by many small firms.

3. Difficult entry to new firms.

According to the concentration ratio, when a small number of companies control more than 40 percent of a market, it is called an oligopoly.

For 2017

Account receivable % = Account Receivable/Total Assets x 100

Account receivable % = $ 497,000/$ 3,101,000 * 100

Account receivable % = 0.16027088 * 100

Account receivable % = 16.0%

Inventory % = Inventory/Total Assets *100

Inventory % = $ 735,000/$ 3,101,000 * 100

Inventory % = 0.2370203 * 100

Inventory % = 23.7 %

Total Assets = $3,101,000 = 100%

For 2016

Account receivable % = Account Receivable/Total Assets * 100

Account receivable % = $ 435,000/$ 2,758,000 * 100

Account receivable % = 0.15772298 * 100

Account receivable % = 15.8%

Inventory % = Inventory/Total Assets * 100

Inventory % = $555,000/$ 2,758,000 * 100

Inventory % = 0.20123277 * 100

Explanation:

Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth and attracts a lot of tourist as well as investors at every point in time. During the 1970's, there was migration of people from other west African countries due to the economic stabilty and increasing economic expansion, thus making Nigeria a place to search for greener pasture within the continent. In the 1980's, there was an economic downturn that hit the country so hard that Nigerians started calling for the exit of fellow african nationals in the country. Most affected country then was Ghana and there was a slogan with tthe phrase 'Ghana-must-go'.

The phrase went on to become the name of the bags with which Ghanians left tthe country with.

N.B: look up Ghana-must-go bags on google.

Cheers.
