Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pablo's measure of damages will be the difference between the contract price and the cost of buying the computer elsewhere, which is $6,500 - $5,000 = $1,500. He is entitled to this amount as well as any incidental damages (such as the cost of any expenses he incurred in attempting to get Regal Systems to deliver the computer). Therefore, the best choice is B.
