Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving closing statement and affiliate broker supervision. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 35)
Answer choices
- A. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- B. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- C. Distinguish buyer and seller debits and credits at settlement in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
C. Distinguish buyer and seller debits and credits at settlement in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because closing statement requires candidates to distinguish buyer and seller debits and credits at settlement. The Tennessee reference keeps the scenario tied to state licensing practice, while the other options rely on unsafe assumptions about oral custom, escrow, client preference, independent licensee authority, or ignoring written duties.
