Common questions
Is this day-count method mandatory for every tenancy?
No. It is an explicit assumption of this financial example. Check the billing period, day-count method and payment conditions in the actual agreement.
Is the security deposit prepaid rent?
Not in this example. It is a separate amount and must not automatically be counted twice as rent expense or treated as an unconditional refund.
