摘要：Several Problems associated with the beauty of inter-firm strategic alliance abounds. Some alliance results into structures that attract costs associated with uncertainty, poor stability, and performance. This study attempts to bring together these variables with a view to gaining insight into the implications of cost of structuring in an alliance. Data from 20 firms that have gone into alliances were used for analysis and findings supported the hypotheses suggesting the need to ascertain the difference between voluntary and involuntary inter-firm alliance.
