BSL165Assignment2015 MBS 518 Principles of Business Governance Semester 1 2020 Assignment This assignment is worth 40 marks. It must not exceed 1100 words. The assignment is due by 5 pm 28th April 2020 WST . Students must submit their assignments in BOTH electronic and in paper form. This is an individual assignment. In answering the assignment you must use a 12 size font, double spacing and default Microsoft Word margins. The mark for your assignment will be determined by reference to the quality of its analysis, its clarity and organisation, and its presentation, including its freedom from distracting stylistic errors (grammatical, spelling, punctuation and typographical). Where appropriate, references should be made to statute sections, cases, texts and other commentary. Late assignments will have 10% of the marks deducted per day or part thereof. Extensions for the assignment will be granted only in exceptional circumstances. If something exceptional arises that you believe requires an extension you should contact me (preferably by e-mail) before the due date. Reasons which are insufficient to warrant an extension include computer failures, car failures or other transportation difficulties, work conflicts and other study commitments Cases decided by courts and tribunals have a name, a year of decision, report title, report volume, and report page number. All of these details should be included in the first citation of the case. E.g. Stevens v Brodribb Sawmilling (1986) 95 CLR 523. After that the case can be referred by name only. Where you have found out the details of the case from a summary or other source and not from the case report itself, your sentence should conclude with that source. E.g. In Stevens v Brodribb……(van der Waarden 2010, p18). Note, this example is appropriate for Chicago style referencing; the end of sentence reference will be denoted differently depending on the reference style. Legislation should be named with the year of parliamentary approval and jurisdiction listed as part of its name. E.g. Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth). Cth is an abbreviation for Commonwealth. WA is the abbreviation used for Western Australia. If you are referring to a particular section of an Act, you should name the act first and then add the section. E.g. Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) s. 117. Once you have cited cases and legislation appropriately in the text of your paper, you should NOT list them again in your list of references. Nb. Reference lists include books, articles, internet documents, etc. See the Library guides at http://library.murdoch.edu.au/Students/Referencing for further information on Chicago or APA style referencing. You can find information on AGLC 3 referencing at http://www.law.unimelb.edu.au/mulr/submissions/quick-aglc Assignment question Johnny, a student, went into the university cafeteria to have lunch. He took a tray from the rack and as he passed along the counter, he specifically requested for and was given by an attendant a plate of curry chicken and vegetables that he put on the tray. The price for the curry chicken and the vegetables was clearly printed on a board next to the food items. Next, Johnny then selected an apple, banana and a coke from a self service stall and also placed them on his tray. The price for these items was also clearly marked. As Johnny was proceeding to the cashier at the end of the counter, he reflected that final examinations were due to begin in a week's time. He no longer felt hungry and therefore told the cashier that he wished to return all the food items on his tray. The cashier insisted that he must pay for all the items. Discuss the following situations strictly according to the Principles of contract law only. (A) Can Johnny refuse to purchase the apple, banana and the coke ? (15 marks) (B) Can Johnny return the chicken curry and vegetables that he had specifically requested from the attendant ? (15 marks) (C) Would your answer to (A) above be different if Johnny had taken a bite of the apple, a sip of the coke and peeled the banana ? (10marks) END OF PAPER

TITLE
APPLICATION OF PRINCIPLES OF CONTRACT LAW
Part A
The display of apple, banana, and coke in the self-service store is an invitation to offer and must be different from an offer. Invitati
on to offer or an offer is based on the intention with which it is made. Offer is made with the intention to bind the other person to whom it has been addressed. An invitation to offer is of no clear intention to bind the person when the person communicates his assent (Eisenberg 2018). When johnny selected an apple, banana, and a coke from a self-service stall where the price of the items was also clearly marked and placed them on his tray, he merely acted upon the invitation to offer. He did not communicate any acceptance or did any act of acceptance. Common examples of invitation to offer are advertisements, displaying goods in a self-service store. To revoke an offer or invitation to offer, an expressed communication must be made to the offeror at any time before acceptance. And Johnny explicitly told the cashier that he wished to return the food items as he was no longer hungry.
In such a scenario, Johnny is not bound to pay any amount to the cashier as this was an invitation to offer and he has not given his acceptance. And the cashier cannot insist johnny to pay for the items as the offer was not accepted.
Case - Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain v. Boots Cash Chemists Ltd. (Howells and Weatherill, 2017) When goods are primarily displayed either in a show-window or inside the shop and such goods have price-tags, the question which comes in such case is, whether this act amounts to an offer to sell goods at prices displayed on the price tags. In this case, it was held that display of goods along with price tags merely amounts to an invitation to offer ,and therefore if an buyer has an intention or is willing to purchase the goods at a price mentioned on the tag, he merely makes an offer to buy the goods. Thus, the shopkeeper has the right to...
