Question

Freddy offers to supply water bottles to Jerry’s Gym at a cost of $40a case. The signed contract says that Jerry’s Gym will buy one case of water a month for 12 months. Three months into the contract, Freddy calls Jerry And tells Jerry that the price has gone up to $70a month because Freddy’s product is in such high demand. Jerry refuses to pay. Jerry finds a new supplier, Wally, who will provide one case of water for 9 months at a cost of $50a case. Jerry sues Freddy for breach of contract. What type of damages is Jerry’s Gym entitled to and how much money does Freddy have to pay Jerry’s Gym

Answer 1

Answer:

-jerry is entitled to monetary damages compensations due to a contract breach.

-Freddy has to pay Jerry $90

Explanation:

the damage that the gym is entitled to would be that of a contract breach. Freddy wanted to earn more money so he breached the contract. Now given that Jerry had to go with another supplier of water at a greater cost of 50 dollars for 9 months, just to satisfy his requirements. Freddy has to pay him monetary damages for this breach in contract.  he has to pay the difference that exists between the price in the contract they had and what jerry now has to pay due to the breach. The difference is 10 dollars, which is to be paid every month for 9 months

= (50 - 40)*9

= 10 * 9 = $90
