In this case the perfect tender rule
b. does not apply.
Explanation:
The perfect tender rule has certain exceptions where it cannot be applied to the tender parties and the probates of the tender.
If there is a government ruling against the use of certain products that are necessary for the tender to be completed and the outlaw happens after the tender is signed but before it is completed as a consignment then it cannot be done.
This would come under the ambit of an emergency where the governed ruling makes such deals null and void.
Answer:
1,000 shares
Explanation:
The 318 attribution rule states that stock owned directly or indirectly by a partnership is considered to be owned by any partner that owns 5% or more in the business.
This is relevant to family owned businesses and is a way to mark out principal owners of a business in order to avoid tax evasion and fraud.
In this scenario John directly owns 700 of the outstanding shares. But according to the 318 attribution rule, since he he is a 50% partner he owns half of the outstanding 2,000 shares. That is 1,000 shares.
