B: a crack in a window caused by a factor beyond the tenant's control and not recorded on the preexisting damage list
C: a hole in the wall that was not recorded on the preexisting damage list and that was the result of an event within the tenant's control
D: a missing light fixture that was present when the tenant moved in but was later removed by the tenant
