1. In the criminal justice system, John can temporarily put Jack in custody pending the arrival of the police. Jack was not detained for a period longer than five minutes and not for a civil wrong.
Thus, in this lawsuit for the tort of unlawful imprisonment, Jack will lose because he committed a crime. He cannot apply a civil law to a criminal case.
2. Adriana is correct that her personal assets cannot be reached in this lawsuit brought by the shareholders of DEF, Inc. because SLA Accountants, LLP is a limited liability partnership and not just an ordinary partnership.
A limited liability partnership, like a limited liability company, offers members limited liability. However, the shareholders of DEF, Inc. may decide to sue Adriana personally.
3. Andrew is wrong because the car handed over by Sam was not a completed inter-vivos gift. The transfer was not absolute but conditional upon Sam not returning from the Middle East.
As a conditional transfer of gift, the vesting of the ownership interest created by the transfer depends on the fulfillment of a condition.
Thus, since the transfer condition did not materialize, Andrew should return the car to Sam in good faith.

Answer:
a) 15.69%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return is shown below:
= (Current year dividend ÷ current price) + growth rate
where,
Current year dividend = Dividend × ( 1 + dividend growth rate)
= $0.46 × (1 + 14.5%)
= $0.527
And, the other item values remain the same
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would be equal to
= ($0.527 ÷ $44.12) + 0.145
= 15.69%

The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
July 1: Beginning Inventory 31 units at $16 $496
July 7: Purchases 109 units at $16 $1744
July 22: Purchases 16 units at $17 $272
A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 39 units on hand.
FIFO (first-in, first-out)
Units sold= (31 + 109 + 16) - 39= 117
COGS= 31*16 + 86*16= $1,872
