Tenant and Landlord
The Klassen Company, a retail hardware store, pays quarterly rent on its store at the beginning of each quarter. The rent per quarter is $24,000. The owner of the building in which the store is located is the Resing Corporation.
Using the balance sheet equation format (refer to page 144 for an example), analyze the effects of the following on the tenant’s and the landlord’s financial position:
1. Klassen pays $24,000 rent on July 1.
2. Adjustment for July.
3. Adjustment for August.
4. Adjustment for September. Also prepare the journal entries for Klassen and Resing for September.
