Answer:

lower price

Explanation:

Pricing occurs through the interaction between supply and demand for a product. When supply increases, price tends to decrease to attract higher demand.

This is a basic determinant of the law of supply and demand, whereby the increase / decrease in the quantity supplied causes a decrease / increase in the price of the product.
