Question 26

Which of the following will always give rise to a claim of misrepresentation?
1. Silence
2. False thought
3. Statement of fact
4. Representation by conduct

Correct Answer: C
A misrepresentation is a false statement of fact or law which induces the representee to enter a contract. Where a statement made during the course of negotiations is classed as a representation rather than a term an action for misrepresentation may be available where the statement turns out to be untrue.
For a party to claim for misrepresentation, there must be a false statement of fact or law as oppose to opinion or estimate of future events. It does not matter whether the incorrect information is given by words or takes the form of misleading conduct.
Silence will not generally amount to a misrepresentation. However, it can become a misrepresentation in some exceptional circumstances.
In the L4M3 study guide, the author states that "A statement of law is not misrepresentation". This is untrue in both common law and civil law systems. In the UK, false statement of law will now amount to an actionable misrepresentation (see Pankhania v Hackney [2002] EWHC 2441).

Question 28

XYZ Ltd is negotiating a long-term supply contract of important parts with a supplier. Dave, procurement manager teams up with Alla, legal manager to construct a service level agreement. Dave is concerned that poor performance of supplier may cause damages to the operations of the organisation. Which of the following can be used in conjunction with SLA to compensate the buying organisation in case of supplier's poor performance?
1. Warranties
2. Force majeure clauses
3. Penalty clauses
4. Service credits

Correct Answer: B
Service level agreement often sets out the minimum quality standards of the services provided, remedies if that standards are not met, consequences if the targets are exceeded. Penalty clauses and service credits are remedies that are often used in conjunction with service level agreement to ensure the performance and to compensate the purchaser if targets are not met.

Question 29

Which of the following is an invitation to treat?

Correct Answer: C
An invitation to treat is an action inviting other parties to make an offer to form a contract. These actions may sometimes appear to be offers themselves, and the difference can sometimes be difficult to determine. The distinction is important because accepting an offer creates a binding contract while "accepting" an invitation to treat is actually making an offer.
One simple test to distinguish an offer and an invitation to treat is to ask what this statement will become when it is accepted. Now we apply this test to four options:
- Tender bid: Tender bid is submitted by a supplier to an invitation to tender from the buyer. It states the specific quantity, price and other elements. If buyer accepts the bid, there will be a contractbetween them.
Therefore, a tender bid is an offer.
- Purchase order: Purchase order which is sent by a buyer will state the items, the quantity, the price and terms and conditions. If supplier accepts the purchase order, there will also be a contract between two parties. It is also an offer.
- Price list: Price list is prepared by a supplier. The price list often states the items and unit price. If a buyer accepts it, the contract has not yet been formed since the contract scope has not yet been decided. It is an invitation to treat.
- Invoice: Invoice is often sent after a contract is formed. It is in fact a request for payment, neither offer nor invitation to treat.
