1. A seller promises to sell goods to a buyer. The buyer pays a deposit but later refuses
to complete the purchase. What’s the seller’s best remedy?
A) Specific performance
B) Expectation damages
C) Restitution
D) Punitive damages
Answer: B
Rationale: Expectation damages put the seller in the position they would have been in
had the contract been performed, the primary remedy for breach of contract for sale of
goods.
2. Under the Statute of Frauds, a contract for the sale of goods for $500 or more must
be:
A) Oral if partial performance occurred
B) In writing to be enforceable
C) Valid even if unwritten
D) Void
Answer: B
Rationale: California follows UCC Statute of Frauds — contracts for sale of goods ≥
$500 must be in writing. Partial performance is limited in defense.
,3. A contract clause states: “This agreement is final and cannot be altered.” In
California, such a clause:
A) Makes modification unenforceable absent new consideration
B) Allows oral modification
C) Is void as against public policy
D) Allows modification without writing
Answer: A
Rationale: Anti-modification clauses require contract modifications to be in writing;
without new consideration, oral mods are unenforceable.
4. A party’s unilateral mistake is generally:
A) Grounds for rescission
B) Non-enforceable unless the other party knew or should have known of the mistake
C) Always enforceable
D) A reason to award punitive damages
Answer: B
Rationale: Unilateral mistakes don’t void a contract unless the non-mistaken party knew
or should have known of the error.
5. Consideration requires:
A) A promise and a promise
B) A bargained-for exchange
C) Adequate economic value
D) Only moral duty
Answer: B
, Rationale: Consideration in California is a bargained-for exchange; adequacy of value is
not judged by courts.

described as:
