Question No. 1

Robert has a contract with Farmer Ted who provides his manufacturing firm with potatoes. There is a contract in place, signed by both parties that Ted will deliver 2 tonnes of potatoes per week. Due to changes in demand, Robert would like Ted to start providing 3 tonnes of potatoes every three weeks. What must be in place for this change to occur?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: B

A variation clause and signed agreement by both parties is required to make the change. See p.16-17 for more information on contract variations. Note a 'notification of change' isn't valid unless it's accepted by the other party- so it's a good idea for both parties to sign to say they agree to the change.


Question No. 2

Restitution damages are often calculated before contracts are signed and are clearly stated within a contract. Which of the following statements is not true?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: D

'restitution damages cannot be mitigated by the actions of the innocent party' is the untrue state-ment out of these four. The general principle of Restitution Damages is that the innocent party is expected to be proactive in mitigating the consequences of any breach and should not allow costs to spiral out of control. See p. 124


Question No. 3

A warranty is a minor term of a contract. Is this TRUE?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: A

The correct answer is 1. The statement is True so the answer needs to start with 'yes'. Therefore options 3 and 4 should be discounted. Option 2 is incorrect a warranty does NOT affect the prime benefit of the contract. See p. 126 for more details on Contractual Warranties and Conditions


Question No. 4

John is a chocolatier and has a big order of Easter Eggs coming up in April. He also creates chocolates to sell all year round in his shop, but Easter Eggs represent a large proportion of his profits each year. John's chocolate making machine has just broken and he has ordered a new one to be delivered in February. However due to a delay, the manufacturer of the new machine can't deliver until May. What course of action can John take?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: C

3 is the correct answer. This question is testing your understanding of 'consequential loss' which is explained on p.109. Consequential loss is where you can claim damages for incidental loss (loss that isn't a direct cause of the breach of the contract, such as future earnings). In this scenario the breach is the late delivery and the incidental damage is John not being able to sell any chocolate in his shop or make his Easter Eggs. There are questions like this in the real exam- remember to think what the textbook would say and don't overthink this. The scenario doesn't always give you a lot of information (for example this doesn't say if there is a contract in place) so think- which of these four options is the most logical and what is this question trying to test me on.


Question No. 5

Molly is a wedding planner who has just set up as a sole-trader. She has a meeting with a po-tential couple to organise their wedding. The couple is extremely risk adverse and have asked Molly to email them a copy of her insurances. Which insurances should Molly send? Select TWO

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: C, D

The correct answers are indemnity insurance and public liability insurance. Molly doesn't have any products so this wouldn't be required- she's a consultant. As a sole-trader she doesn't have employees so doesn't need Employer's Liability Insurance. The book does not go into much detail about types of insurances - but this is a known exam topic. So if you aren't confident on these four types of insurance and when you'd expect a supplier to have them - do some extra research before the exam. Insurance types are briefly mentioned on p. 25
