Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: price war.

Explanation:

An Oligopoly is when a small group of two or more companies dominates a market. Oligopoly firms may consent to market collusion, and create barriers to new commerce entry. If the businesses do not, they will probably be forced to lower their prices and open the market to new and smaller companies.

<em>In the event one of the firms forming the oligopoly decides to lower prices, a </em><u><em>price war</em></u><em> occurs breaking the balance of the oligopoly and destabilizing the equilibrium of demand and supply in that market.</em>

Chelsea Fashions is expected to pay an annual dividend of $1.26 a share next year. The market price of the stock is $24.09 and t
Stells [14]

Answer:

a. 7.83 percent

Explanation:

This is calculated by using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula as follows:

P = d / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P =  market price of the stock = $24.09

d = next year annual dividend = $1.26

r = cost of equity = ?

g = dividend growth rate = 2.6%, or 0.026

Substituting the values into equation and solve for r, we have:

24.09 = 1.26 / (r - 0.026)

24.09 (r - 0.026) = 1.26

24.09r - 0.62634 = 1.26

24.09r = 1.26 + 0.62634

24.09r = 1.88634

r = 1.88634 / 24.09

r = 0.0783038605230386, or 7.83038605230386%

Rounding to 2 decimal places. we have:

r = 7.83%

Therefore, the correct option is a. 7.83 percent.
