Mr. and Mrs. Roberts checked into the Acme Hotel Downtown. Mr. Roberts gave his car keys to the hotel valet so that the valet could park the car and retrieve the car when it was needed. A sign adjacent to the valet stand advises that valet parking is $30 per night and that the hotel is not responsible for damage or loss vehicles. When Mr. Roberts requests the valet deliver his car the following day, the car is missing. Briefly discuss the legal relationship, if any, between the hotel and Mr. Roberts with respect to his vehicle.

What, if any, effect does the disclaimer on the garage sign?

Question: In this case we are asked to explore the appropriate application of Generally Accepted Accounting... In this case we are asked to explore the appropriate application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles pertaining to Capitalization of Costs vs. the Expensing of Costs....A COST represents the value exchanged for the ASSET or the benefit received from monies disbursed.....now....how do we interpret the benefits received.....are there future benefits??? or Are the benefits concurrently expired upon acquisition???? So this becomes the basis of many issues pertaining to the accurate interpretation of a guideline in concert with the business transaction under analysis.....It is our responsibility to ensure we meet the needs of our clients without undermining the initial intention of the guideline....So then we are faced with issues pertaining to LOOPHOLES....Is it appropriate for us...as ethical accounting professional, to attempt to find creative ways to essentially circumvent the regulatory restriction.....Are we able to meet both the needs of our clients and the integrity of our profession???? So now you are asked to interpret an issue related to Capitalization vs Expensing for the TRUMP International Corp.....Craft your response carefully including all of the resources you investigated as you crafted your response. Trump International Construction Company is building a hotel for speculative purposes. That is, the Company has not yet found a buyer for the hotel, but expects to do so within a few months. Trump International expects to spend about another two years to complete construction of the hotel borrows $25,000,000 at 5.5% on Jan 1, 2017 and commences building the hotel. The land was purchased in 2016 for $5,000,000 and has property taxes of $4,000,000 per year. Trump incurs building and construction costs of $12,000,000 for 2017 and 2018. Trump International seeks advice from you, as their accountant, if the interest on bank loan and property taxes associated with this construction site should be capitalized or expensed. Required: Conduct research on the fundamentals of reporting a Cost as an Asset (Capitalized) vs. an Expense and prepare a memo advising the client of your advice. What should the value of the Hotel be reported on the Financial Statements at Dec 31, 2017? Is it relevant that the hotel is being constructed on speculation rather than for a particular customer?

A community playhouse needs to determine the​ lowest-cost production budget for an upcoming show. They have to determine which set pieces to construction and which to rent. The organization has only two weeks to construct the set. The theater has two carpenters who work up to 12 hours a​ week, each at ​$12 an hour.​ Additionally, the theater has a scenic artist who can work 15 hours per week to paint as needed at ​$14 per hour. The set needs 20 flats​ (walls), two hanging​ drops, and three wooden tables​ (props). The number of hours required for each piece for carpentry and painting is shown below.​ Flats, hanging​ drops, and props can also be rented at a cost of ​$75​, ​$500​, and ​$400 ​each, respectively. How many of each unit should be built by the theater and how many should be rented to minimize total​ cost?

The optimal integer solution is to build __ flat(s) and rent __ ​flat(s); build __hanging​ drop(s) and rent __hanging​ drop(s); build __prop(s) and rent__ prop(s). This solution gives the ▼(minimum, maximum) ​cost, which is ​$__.

Gary Theater is in the Hoosier Mall. A cashier's booth is located near the entrance to the theater. Two cashiers are employed. One works from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., the other from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. Each cashier is bonded. The cashiers receive cash from customers and operate a machine that ejects serially numbered tickets. The rolls of tickets are inserted and locked into the machine by the theater manager at the beginning of each cashier's shift. After purchasing a ticket, the customer takes the ticket to a doorperson stationed at the entrance of the theater lobby some 60 feet from the cashier's booth. The doorperson tears the ticket in half, admits the customer, and returns the ticket stub to the customer. The other half of the ticket is dropped into a locked box by the doorperson. At the end of each cashier's shift, the theater manager removes the ticket rolls from the machine and makes a cash count. The cash count sheet is initialed by the cashier. At the end of the day, the manager deposits the receipts in total in a bank night deposit vault located in the mall. In addition, the manager sends copies of the deposit slip and the initialed cash count sheets to the theater company treasurer for verification and to the company's accounting department. Receipts from the first shift are stored in a safe located in the manager's office. (a)Identify the internal control principles and their application to the cash receipts transactions of Gary Theater. (b)If the doorperson and cashier decided to collaborate to misappropriate cash, what actions might they take?
