Powder room mess. for $300,000, willis agrees to build a new home for robert, who is very picky. willis builds the home to robert's specifications with one exception. the faucets and linoleum flooring in an upstairs powder room are not exactly what robert specified. that was a mistake on willis' part, but he had not intentionally failed to follow specifications. when robert sees the powder room, he goes ballistic and tells willis that he will not pay willis anything for the house. it will take $300 to put in correct faucets and linoleum. willis says that he is willing to pay $300 to put robert in the position he would have been in had the correct faucets and linoleum been used, but that is all he is willing to pay. willis' offer to put robert in the position he would have been in had the proper faucets and linoleum been used is based on the measure used for what type of damages?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is: Compensatory Compensation for Damages and Damages.

Explanation:

Compensation for damages directly compensates the victim for significant losses suffered. Most jurisdictions allow to seek compensatory and non-compensatory reparation. However, only compensatory reparation indicates a monetary restitution for economic damages or damages.

The answer is: Compensatory Compensation for Damages and Damages.

Answer 2

These types of damages are called “Compensatory damages”.

Willis breached the contract but the breach was not material. So as a way to compensate for the damages Willis have made, he offered instead to pay $300 to put the correct faucets and linoleum in the powder room.
