Based on your discussions with client's management, they have no objections in the audit adjustments that are required to present the financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles.

1. Company Background:
2. LCV is in trading antique pieces like jars of Ming and Song Dynasties, potteries, porcelains, Mirano glasses, old coins of Spanish, Mexican and Chinese origin, old santos, icons, paintings and Spanish helmets and swords, etc. Each piece has its own history, as if a reconstruction of life in a given era. These pieces were among those found in sunken galleons or excavated or simply transferred from one generation to the other.
3. Buying antiques requires special skills in detecting reproduction items from the original ones, and special knowledge of archeological and marine discoveries and the history of these pieces. Rare and century old pieces command substantially high prices. Its customers, though, are limited to those who are super rich. In LCV's case, buying and selling activities are on negotiated prices, covered by contracts and are approved by the Board of Directors. Security, insurance premiums, research work, brochures, representation and entertainment, and professional fees are the major expenses.
4. Victor Gonzales started LCV on January 1, 2019, with his inherited antique collections valued by an independent antique specialist at P300,000 in December, 2018, as his equity participation to the paid up capital of P500,000.

Property and Equipment

a. LCV office and display center is located in New Manila. It is an old house, reconstructed without any change in architectural design for P10,000. Property area is about 2,000 sq. m. This office, including land, office machines, furniture and fixtures, transportation equipment, has carrying value of P38,763 net of P3,800 depreciation. Land, as appraised by independent appraiser, is valued here at P2,500 over cost at December 31, 2019.

B. Included in this account is a lot purchased from Victor Gonzales, located in Magsingal, Ilocos Sur, for P11,428. This was bought in July 1, 2019 on installment basis; P3,428 cash down payment and the balance, in equal quarterly payments of principal and accruing quarterly interest at 24% per annum starting October 1, 2019. LCV used this lot as part payment of an altar piece of the Magsingal church for a total consideration of P13,428; of which P2,000 was paid in cash and recorded as Antiques for Sale. Under a three-party agreement among the Parish Council and church officials, Victor Gonzales, and LCV, the land title is transferable to the Parish Church upon completion of LCV's obligation. However, the church is allowed by the agreement to convert this land immediately to a memorial park. Victor and his heirs guaranteed the ultimate transfer of title. Additionally, Victor's family made a cash donation of P2,000 as start up capital for the development of the memorial park.

c. Based on the quarterly payment schedule of principal and accruing interest, LCV recorded a liability in the amount of P10,160 to Due to Stockholder; the same account was debited for P1,480 (including interest) for LCV's first payment on October 1,2019.

Pending Legal Case

As at December 31,2019, LCV's lawyers reported no significant pending legal cases, except for one case which was resolved on an out-of-court settlement in March, 2020. One Roberto Reyes filed a case against LCV claiming recovery of a Ming Dynasty jar for P16,000 citing the contract of sale entered into between the Reyes family and LCV in November, 2019 as null and void, considering that LCV failed to establish the rightful ownership of the jar prior to entering into the contract. Although LCV and its lawyer believed that LCV's position is strong, LCV's Board decided a compromise settlement of P8,000 to Robert Reyes himself, to protect LCV's name and to avoid incurrence of additional legal expenses. In March, 2020 Roberto Reyes accepted the compromise settlement. LCV recorded the transaction in March as additional charge to Antiques for Sale. The jar was actually sold to a customer by LCV in December, 2019 for P24,000.
