Case 11-6 deals with Lessee Ltd., a company that operates in Britain and uses IFRS. The question in this case is how to classify a lease that Lessee, Ltd. acquired from Lessor Inc. The accounting standard that deals with leases under IFRS is IAS 17. IAS 17 was originally issued in September 1982 and was reissued in December 2003. It classifies leases as either finance leases or operating leases. Finance leases make it so that the lessee recognizes an asset and a liability and the lessor recognizes a receivable, basically transferring all the risks and benefits of ownership. Under operating leases, the lessor still recognizes the asset and the lessee recognizes an expense.…
Wally, business owner of Windy City Watches is located in downtown Chicago, IL. Business is booming and Wally needs to buy a large quantity of Rolek watches which sell for $50 apiece. He calls Randy Rolek, the wholesaler located in Milwaukee WI. They discuss terms on the phone for a while before coming to an agreement in which Wally offers to buy 100 watches for $25 each. Randy sends over an order form in which Wally states that he is agreeing to purchase watches from Randy for $25 each, but does not include the quantity in which he will buy. Randy sends 50 watches the following week with a note included stating that he has sent 50 watches and will send the other remaining 50 watches within a few days but includes the bill for the full 100 watches. Wally by this time changes his mind about buying the watches and offers to send back the 50 watches that were shipped and pay shipping expense, but will not be able to pay for any of the watches.…

Johannah is a 34-year-old female. Born in the Netherlands, she married an American and came to this country when she was 25 years old. About a year later, Johannah began a series of admissions to psychiatric facilities. She was diagnosed with major depression and later with schizoaffective disorder. About a month ago, Johannah stopped keeping outpatient appointments, stopped taking her medications, stopped bathing, and stopped eating, but was sleeping all the time. Johannes mood symptoms suddenly became less noticeable, and she began wandering her yard after dark, saying the neighbors were in trees. Johannah began to carry a gun to protect itself against the neighbors, who she thought were out to kill her. When she started to fire the gun into the trees, her husband got a court order to have Johannah committed for treatment.…
On November 11, 1974, Gnazzo had an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted in her uterus for contraceptive purposes. The IUD was developed, marketed and sold by G.D. Searle & Co. (Searle). When Gnazzo’s deposition was taken, she stated that her doctor had informed her that “the insertion would hurt, but not for long,” and that she “would have uncomfortable and probably painful periods for the first three to four months. On October 11, 1975, Gnazzo found it necessary to return to her physician due to excessive pain and cramping. During this visit she was informed by her doctor that he thought she had Pelvic inflammatory Disease (PID). She recalled that he stated that the infection was possibly caused by venereal disease or the use of the IUD. The PID was treated with antibiotics and cleared up shortly thereafter. Less than one year later, Gnazzo was again treated for an IUD-associated infection. This infection was also treated with antibiotics. Gnazzo continued using the IUD until it was finally removed in December of 1977.…
As it does not clarify in the readings exactly what the terms of shipment assigned were for the agreement between Siemens and NB Power, I have assumed that the agreement would have specified that Siemens specified that the contract was governed by Incoterms 2010 CFR- St John, New Brunswick, Canada. All responsibility for risk of loss or damage, as well as additional transportation costs now transfer to buyer. Seller responsibility ceases once goods pass the ships rail at the port of shipment (not destination).…
The parents allege that Rob Jr. was tricked into attending some meetings. One night about a year ago, Rob Jr. was getting ready to return home after one of their youth meetings. The organizer of the youth retreat, Tom Marsden, allegedly made numerous excuses for keeping Rob there. It reached a pinnacle when Tom told Rob Jr., "If you leave, you will be thrown into the eternal fires of Hell, and you will not be allowed back." Rob Jr. acquiesced and remained.

Rob Jr. was also told to demand money from his parents to cover his expenses.…

[1993] 2 Lloyd's Rep. 542 Subject: Shipping Keywords: Bills of lading; Cargo; Delivery; Insolvency Summary: Bill of lading; c & f contract; bank named as consignee; property passing separately from bill; buyer insolvent; delivery of cargo without production of bill; whether bank becoming pledgee of goods; whether bank having title to sue; whether shipowner liable for misdelivery Abstract: In 1985, shipowners delivered cargo to a c & f buyer, without production of the bills of lading, after being given an indemnity by the seller. The contract between the buyer and seller provided for property in the goods to pass shortly before arrival at the port of delivery and without bills being tendered to the bank. In 1986, about a year after shipment, the bills were eventually presented to a bank, under a letter of credit. The buyer had instructed the bank to extend the date by which the documents had to be negotiated. The bank agreed because it was short of foreign currency. The buyer had agreed with the seller that the bills should be withheld from the banking chain in order to delay the time for payment. On paying under the credit, the bank knew that the goods had been delivered and dispersed. The bank claimed against the shipowners in conversion. The bank, although named as consignee, was never a party to the original contract of carriage, nor did it have title under the Bills of Lading Act 1855 s.1. The main issue was whether the bank had title to sue for non-delivery. The judge held that the bank never became a pledgee and there was no intention to pass constructive possession of the goods and it was not possible for the bank to establish that it had title to sue in bailment. Held, dismissing the bank's appeal, that (1) the buyer under a normal c & f contract is not in a position to pledge the goods or the documents of title to…
