A landlord entered into a 10-year lease of a building with an auctioneer, who planned to use the building itself for a storage a

rea and the covered porch at the front of the building for auctions. A term in the auctioneer’s lease stated, "Lessor agrees to maintain all structures on the property in good repair." Four years into the lease, the landlord sold the property to a buyer. The buyer did not agree to perform any obligations under the lease. As instructed, the auctioneer began paying rent to the buyer. In the fifth year of the lease, the porch roof began to leak. Citing the lease terms, the auctioneer asked the buyer to repair the roof. He continually refused to do so. The auctioneer finally repaired the roof herself at a cost of $2,000. The auctioneer then brought an appropriate lawsuit to recover the money. Absent any other facts, what is the auctioneer likely to recover?

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Usually, the landlord is required to notify the tenant if he/she plans to sell the property, but regardless of who owns the property (the original landlord or  a new landlord), the contract terms are valid and must be honored by both the current landlord and the tenant.

The new owner immediately became the new landlord and he/she assumed all the responsibilities stated in the lease contract. Since the lease contract stated that the "lessor (landlord) agreed to maintain all structures on the property in good repair", the new landlord must pay for any necessary repairs.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: d. is not deductible.

Explanation: Annuity cancellation is possible before the specified term of the contract which may occur due to poor performance or other needs best known to the holder of the contract. However, when cancellation clause of an annuity is triggered, the holder may have to bear with losses arising from the cancellation in the form of Fall in the net asset value at the time, that is if the net asset value is lower than the cost basis, this is classed as ordinary and is deductible. However, the insurer also charges a non-deductible surrender charge upon cancellation.

A company has the following loan activity—Additional loan from bank: $19,000; Ending cash
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Preliminary cash balance =  - $13,400.

Explanation:

We know,

Cash at hand = Preliminary cash balance + Additional borrowings from bank.

Given,

Cash at hand = $5,600

Additional borrowings from bank = $19,000

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Cash at hand = Preliminary cash balance + Additional borrowings from bank

Or, $5,600 = Preliminary cash balance + $19,000

Or, $5,600 - $19,000 = Preliminary cash balance

Or, Preliminary cash balance =  - $13,400.

Therefore, the company had no cash at the beginning; rather, they had to use other people's money.

For purposes of allocating joint costs to joint products, the estimated net realizable value at split-off is equal to A. final s
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

A. Final sales price reduced by cost to complete after split-off.

Explanation:

Net realizable value (NRV) is explained here to be the value of an asset that can be realized upon the sale of the asset, less a reasonable estimate of the costs associated with the eventual sale or disposal of the asset. It is a common method used to evaluate an asset's value for inventory accounting. NRV is a valuation method used in both Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Many business transactions allow for judgment or discretion when choosing an accounting method.

A conservative approach means that the accountant should use the accounting method that generates less profit and does not overstate the value of assets.
