Person A owns 51% of the shares of a company. Person B owns 49% and is willing to pay literally any amount of money to buy enough stock to become the majority shareholder. Person A is not willing to sell no matter what. How is the price of the stock determined?

Given this situation there is no “price”. If there are only 2 players, and A doesn’t want to sell to B, you can’t force them to (except in very specific situations of malfeasance). If there is no seller (or no buyer) you cannot [make a market](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/makeamarket.asp). It’s that simple.
