R&J Associates leased certain commercial real estate from T&C Associates, Inc., for a one-year period beginning May 1

R&J Associates leased certain commercial real estate from T&C Associates, Inc., for a one-year period beginning May 1. The lease required that T&C give R&J 10 days’ notice before canceling the lease. R&J operated the leased premises as a bar that featured seminude dancers but discontinued the business during the following March when it lost a necessary dance permit. In late March and early April, T&C noticed that the bar was not open and learned that R&J had lost its permit. R&J was behind on its rent at this time. Utility companies were seeking to shut off service to the premises because R&J was also behind on its utility bills. When T&C informed R&J that its monthly rent would be higher if it renewed the lease, R&J said it had no interest in renewing. For the above reasons, T&C took possession of the premises in April. T&C, however, did not give R&J the 10 days’ notice referred to in the lease. T&C leased the premises to a new tenant later that month. At approximately the same time, R&J demanded the return of certain personal property items it had left on the premises. T&C told R&J to contact the new tenant, adding that there should be no problem with the return of the items of personal property. R&J contacted the new tenant, who told R&J to submit a list of its personal property because other parties were also claiming rights to what had been left on the premises. R&J did not submit this list and did not contact T&C again about the personal property items. Later, R&J sued T&C for conversion of the personal property. Did R&J have a valid conversion claim?

Forrester Fashions has annual credit sales of 250,000 units with an average collection period of 70 days

E15–4 Forrester Fashions has annual credit sales of 250,000 units with an average collection period of 70 days. The company has a per-unit variable cost of $20 and a perunit sale price of $30. Bad debts currently are 5% of sales. The firm estimates that a proposed relaxation of credit standards would not affect its 70-day average collection period but would increase bad debts to 7.5% of sales, which would increase to 300,000 units per year. Forrester requires a 12% return on investments. Show all necessary calculations required to evaluate Forrester’s proposed relaxation of credit standards.
