LST2BSL Introduction To Business Law And Ethics - Common Law Assignment

Question 1:

Joanna is setting up a small business mowing lawns and maintaining domestic gardens. Her business is called ‘Spring Lawns and Gardens’. Joanna needs a sturdy lawnmower that will withstand frequent use, so she goes to her local hardware store called Lawnmower City. Joanna is assisted by Jimmy. Joanna explains her needs, and Jimmy shows her the MowMaster 6000, a new brand of lawnmower. “The MowMaster 6000 is the one for you. It’s amazing! The blades can cut through anything, and they’ll never get blunt or bent out of shape. I think you’ll get through your jobs in no time with this lawnmower and be able to fit more clients into the week. It was designed in Germany and made from the best quality parts.” Joanna checks out the MowMaster 6000 and is convinced by Jimmy’s comments. She decides to purchase one.

1. Are any of Jimmy’s statements about the MowMaster 6000 part of the sale contract? (5 marks)
