<u>Savings on new furnace:</u>
- 600 * $0.30 * 0.96 (or written as 96%) = $172.8
Difference: $144 - $172.8 = -$28.8.

Going by the Accrual principle in accounting, revenue is only to be recognized when earned. This means that revenue from services performed in October and revenue from services to be performed in December, will not be part of revenue reported in November.
Revenue to be recorded in November income statement = Billed $3,950 to customers for services performed on account in November + Received $1,050 cash for services performed during November
= 3,950 + 1,050
= $5,000

An Oligopolistic market is one where the suppliers are very few in number. Cooperation is indeed difficult in such markets as they are motivated by self-interest to try to make more profits than their competitors.
This usually leads to an undesirable outcome. For instance, if two oligopolistic firms agree on a price to sell goods, one of them might decide to sell at a lower price in order to gain more market share. This will cause the other firm to reduce its prices as well which means that both companies would be worse off than when they started.
