Suppose that you are a big fan of the Harry Potter books. You would love to own a copy of the very first printing of the first​

book, but unfortunately you​ can't find it for sale for less than​ $5,000. You are willing to pay at most​ $200 for a​ copy, but​ can't find one at that price until one day in a used bookstore you see a copy selling for​ $10, which you immediately buy. Are you being irrational if you keep the copy rather than sell it?

Answer:

I consider it wouldn't be irrational

Explanation:

Since you have now a collectible book that, in a few years more from now would cost even more.

Must of the antiques that didn't cost to much in certain time now can be in auction and people make a lot of money with them.  

When you have a collectible you need to find Collector Clubs or dealers, search over the internet and compare prices and then you can determinate when it is a good moment to sell.

Hope It helps

Henry is a landlord renting an apartment to​ Steven, a student at a nearby university. The two enter into a​ one-year lease arra
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Mitigate his damages

Explanation:

By law, mitigation involves making effort to reduce losses. Now, an individual claiming damages or losses due to break in contract or a wrongful act by another individual has a duty under the law to mitigate those damages. That is to say, the plantiff is under a duty under the law to reduce the loss by taking advantage of any opportunity arising that may help.redice the losses or damages. However, in this case, the plantiff, who's the landlord Henry did not mitigate the loss by not attempting to or renting the accommodation out for the remaining six month. Thus, the damages would likely be reduced because he failed to mitigate his damages as he should have done as required under the law.
