Answer:

false

Explanation:

In common law, the right of publicity refers to the ownership and control of the commercial exploit of a company's or a person's image or persona. E.g. forged t-shirts with the names and logos of professional sports teams are in direct violation of the right of publicity.

In this case, there was no commercial exploitation of the plaintiff's name, so there cannot be a violation of the right of publicity.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The defendant cannot be held liable for misappropriation of the right to publicity because the defendant making an untrue statement of fact about a plaintiff was not meant for commercial purpose. the person that can be held liable in such situation is the third party who publish the statement for commercial purpose without the consent of the plaintiff.

The right to publicity is a form of intellectual right that protects against the exploitation  of one's name, logo or statement  for commercial purpose without the consent of the person.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

c. Debit: Discount on notes payable, $41,884.

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Equipment    $883,116  

Discount on Notes payable $41,884  ($740,000 - $698,116)

        To Notes payable       $740,000  

        To Cash                       $185,000

(Being the amount paid in cash and note payable is recorded)

Working note

= Note payable amount × PVF factor at 6% for one year

= $740,000 × 0.94340

= $698,116

For recording this we debited the equipment as it increased the assets and discount is always debited while the note payable and cash is credited as it increased the liabilities and reduced the assets
