Taxation of Compensation Amount Received by Chevron Ltd Due to Furniture Damages
Question
Fine Furniture Supplies is in the business of leasing and selling Oasis Furniture imported from Sweden. In January 2012, Fine Furniture entered into a contract with Chevron Ltd, a furniture retailer, to supply Oasis furniture over a period of two years. The agreement provided for a fixed price on each various times sold within the two-year period, and also for a free warranty period of 18 months.
Because of a change in tariff regulations in November 2012, the price of Oasis furniture increased by an average of 25%. As a result, Fine Furniture indicated that it wished to terminate the agreement with Chevron Ltd from 1 December 2012. The termination of the agreement forced Chevron to purchase furniture from another supplier at a higher price.
Chevron began an action to sue Fine Furniture for damages of $700,000, being compensation for the increased cost of having to buy its furniture elsewhere. The action by Chevron was discontinued when Fine Furniture paid to Chevron $400,000 to settle the matter.
Advise Chevron as to whether the amount received as compensation constitutes assessable income, and if so what type of assessable income it would be.
If you think you need further information, explain what that information is and why it is needed.
Summary
This question belongs to taxation law and discusses about a company’s received compensation constitutes assessable income or not.

I had an optical networking assignment due along with two other assignments due around the same time. I was just not getting enough time to give for dedicated research on the optical networking assignment. I just wished that someone could take the responsibility of conducting the research on my behalf and structure the assignment also. One of my friends was using TheReliableTutor.com and told me to give it a go. I was so impressed by their quality and service standard that I have become a repeat customer.
Andrew Lang Student
I was really stuck with my signal processing assignment in my third year of engineering and needed serious help. It was then when I came across this wonderful website. The experts here are open to suggestions and unassuming and instead of a situation where they act like they know everything (as in the case of most online tutoring websites) they listened to me and helped me out. I really liked what they did with all my assignments and most importantly helped me get good grades.
Ann Wood Student
While I took occasional help for my different assignments from TheReliableTutors, I kept on wondering whether they could actually help with my dissertation paper. When I first approached them, they sounded confident and they already knew what is needed to be done. That was very relieving as even before my professor told me what to be done next, the thesis help tutor knew what to do. I have got an “A†in my master’s dissertation report and now I have assigned them by PhD thesis paper also.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
