Explanation:
A monopolistic competitive firm has a downward sloping demand curve. Such a firm is a price maker. It decides price and output through the interaction of the marginal revenue and marginal cost.
The marginal revenue is the change in revenue because of selling an additional output. At high prices, the marginal revenue will be positive while at low prices it will be negative.

End of period adjustments are made to accounts in order to bring them in line with the accrual concept and matching principle of accounting. These principles require that expenses and revenues for the period are matched in order to determine the appropriate profit generated for the period.

For example, if rent expense is incurred for the year and payment is made in the following year, the expense must be recognized in the current year. The same applies to revenue.
