​ National Drilling Company ships its only pump to American Hydraulics Corporation, the manufacturer, for repair. National hires

Overland Transport, Inc., to take the pump to American Hydraulics and to return it to National as soon as the repair is complete. National is forced to suspend operations without a pump, but Overland does not know this. National expects to be without the pump for five days and to lose profits of $5,000. When the pump is not returned by the end of the fifth day, National rents a pump at a cost of $100 per day. Overland delays five more days before returning the pump. National files a suit against Overland, asking for compensatory, consequential, and punitive damages. Will National recover?

Answer:

The answer is: National will succeed in its claim for compensatory damages only (no consequential or punitive damages).

Explanation:

Overland's failure to perform breached the contract it had with National. So National can sue to recover the costs of renting the pump for the five days delay. Any expenses that are caused by a contract breach may be recovered as compensatory damages.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Credit union.

Explanation:

A credit union can be defined as a non-profit making financial cooperative that is typically controlled by its members (employees, church groups, labour unions etc) and it is saddled with the responsibility of providing financial services like the traditional banks to employees such as teachers, educators, nurses, etc.

Generally, the profit made from the amount of money that is being deposited by the members of a credit union are usually returned to the members as a form of better interest rates. Some examples of credit unions are SchoolsFirst Credit Union, New York University Federal Credit Union, Consumers Credit Union, etc.

In this scenario, a financial institution advertises itself as especially oriented towards educators and teachers. Thus, the category this institution would most likely fall under is a credit union because it's not run like businesses that is after making profit i.e it's a non-profit business established to assist employees with their finances.
