Question

Bob contracts to work for Central Construction Corporation (CCC) during July for $4,500. On June 30, CCC cancels the contract. Bob declines a similar job with Design Builders, Inc., which would have paid $4,000. Bob files a suit against CCC. As compensatory damages, Bob can recover

$500
$1000
$750

Answer 1

Amount Receive from compensatory damage = $500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount Receive from Central Construction Corporation = #4,500

Amount Receive from new job = $4,000

Amount Receive from compensatory damage = ?

Computation of amount Receive from compensatory damage:

Amount Receive from compensatory damage = Amount Receive from Central Construction Corporation - Amount Receive from new job

Amount Receive from compensatory damage = $4,500 - $4,000

Amount Receive from compensatory damage = $500

Note: Bob contracts with CCC for $4,500 but the contract is severed. In the new job Bob finds he gets $4,000 where he loses $500. Bob will sue CCC and get compensation for $500.
