Answer:

Yes, there is no legal limit on the number of escrow accounts a broker can have.

Explanation:

A broker transaction facilitates sale between a buyer and a seller.

The broker states a price for the buyer that is an addition of the seller's price and his commission.

An escrow account is one that recieves the buyer's money and notifies seller to transfer goods to the buyer. Once reciept of the goods has been confirmed by the buyer, seller's money is released to him and broker commission paid to him.

There is no legal limit to the number of escrow accounts a broker can have. So Ron can open seperate escrow accounts for each transaction he is doing.

Setler [38]

Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Ron's capital = $80,000

Stella's = $75,000

Tiffany's = $50,000

Income sharing ratio = 3:2:1

Tiffany is retiring from the partnership

Amount paid to Tiffany = $56,000

Bonus = Amount paid to Tiffany - Tiffany's capital

          = $56,000 - $50,000

          = $6,000

Above bonus is 1/6th of goodwill.

Therefore, the total amount of goodwill recorded would be:

Goodwill = \frac{6,000}{\frac{1}{6} }

              = $36,000

depreciation in 2021 would be= $82,000

Explanation:

Depreciation  incurrred in 2019:

Using straight line depreciation = original cost - salvage value / useful life

=(400,000-40,000)/10

=$36,000

The depreciation from January 1, 2019 to December 31st 2020 = 2 years

therefore depreciation  for the two years = $36,000 x 2 = $72,000

Book value recorded early 2021= Original cost - the A ccumulated Deprecaition

= 400,000- 72,000= $328,000

But Remaining useful life =4 years with no salvge value

Therefore depreciation in 2021 would be  = Cost - salvage value / useful life

($328,000 - 0)/4

= $82,000
