Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving closing statement and affiliate broker supervision. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 89)
Answer choices
- A. Distinguish buyer and seller debits and credits at settlement in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
- B. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- C. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- D. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
Correct Answer
A. Distinguish buyer and seller debits and credits at settlement in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A 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.
