Taxi companies:

Few firms, or to be more precise only two taxi companies are in the market. We can deduce that their product is anything homogenous because the customers do not differentiate. Therefore the firms are in the oligopoly market.

Only one single firm is in operation in the market, therefore this is a monopoly. There is one single seller in the market selling a unique drug that no firm else sells.

Oct 31 2013  Interest Receivable  180 Dr

                          Interest Revenue       180 Cr

Oct 31 2013  Cash                        6180 Dr

                         Notes Receivable      6000 Cr

                         Interest Receivable      180 Cr

         

Explanation:

When the note is received, the customer account will be closed and accounts receivable will be credited while a new asset of notes receivable will be created and notes receivable is debited.

The interest on notes receivable is calculated assuming a 360 day year and the 12% is annual interest rate.

The interest on note is 6000 * 0.12 * 90/360 = $180

The interest is income so wull be credited while as it is receivable, the interest receivable will be debited.

On 31 October when the note is honored and cash is received, it will be total of principal + interest so cash = 6000 + 180 = 6180

As a result, the assets notes and interest receivables will be closed and credited against cash.

⇒ Capital Gain = 38 - 32 = $6.
