​ 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.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Desert Company

The amount of notes payable that should be recorded as a current liability will be $520,000.

Explanation:

The 8% notes payable had been refinanced to a long-term notes payable.  But, the 7% notes payable was still being negotiated for refinancing.  Since the refinancing had not been agreed, the notes payable would still have a balance of $520,000.  However, a note in accounts could state the fact that the notes payable was being negotiated for refinancing.
