A seller agreed to sell a tract of land by an enforceable written contract to a buyer for an agreed price. At the time and place

designated for closing, the seller tendered the deed to the land, but the buyer refused to complete the transaction because of a secured note on the land, saying that the contract required the seller to supply a deed free of encumbrances. The seller responded that she intended to pay the secured loan, which was substantially less than the contract price, with the proceeds of the sale of the land. The seller offered to put the proceeds of the sale in escrow for that purpose, for which the buyer could pick the escrow agent. The buyer refused the seller's proposal. The seller then brought suit against the buyer for specific performance of the land sale contract. What is the seller's best argument in support of her claim for relief

Answer: Seller has right to use proceeds to settle the loan.

Explanation:

The Seller has the right to use the proceeds from the sale of a house to settle debt and this is what this seller is offering. The seller also suggests an escrow account which would significantly reduce the risk of default by the seller after being paid.

The seller can argue this in court and have a fair chance of winning because they fully disclosed the fact of the loan to the buyer and told the buyer how they planned to settle it, method which they had the right to use when settling debt of this nature.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": vouchers as an efficient and equitable use of public resources.

Explanation:

School vouchers are monetary public resources allocated to private education. States provide parents a certain amount of money so their children go to a private school or, in other cases, that money can be used for homeschooling. The money provided covers part of private schooling only.

Therefore, <em>if a person focuses on providing students technical knowledge that could be useful for students when they join the workforce instead of allocating resources for private regular shooling, that individual is likely to consider that vouchers are not used efficiently neither it brings effective results.</em>

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Sumner's has a loss of $-7750 from the sale of the equipment

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

We compute the amount  of profit and loss, few steps will be taken which is given below:

Step 1: we compute the book value of the equipment which is shown below:

Book value = purchase price - depreciation claimed

= $79,100 -$39,550

= $39550

Therefore then book value is $39,550

Step 2: we calculate the amount of Sumner's gain or loss which is shown below:

The gain (loss) is = the value (sale) - book value

= $31,800 - 39550

= -7750

Therefore the loss from the sale of the equipment is -$7750

Which implies that Sumner's has a loss of $-7750
