Answer:

The appropriate answer is Option c (Escalator clause).

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The landlord of Lincoln also put a disclaimer throughout the rental lease which allows him to raise the mortgage payment of Lincoln if property wages increase. The deal had an escalator clause.
  • An Escalator clause would be a clause inside a leasing contract as well as rent disclosure that ensures the improvement in rent sum regardless of the reasons which were not under influence of all the participants. Throughout this situation the taxation on land is raised by that of the government therefore adjustment in taxes wasn't in the jurisdiction of all entities.

The other options given aren't connected to just the given case. In such a way that the response above is right.
