Correct Answer
A. SaleExplanation
The correct answer is "Sale." In a sale transaction, the property in the goods is immediately transferred from the seller to the buyer.

Correct Answer
A. When that date arrivesExplanation

None of these, as such a conditional agreement ever becomes sale.
Correct Answer
A. On the fulfillment of the conditions.Explanation
In an agreement to sell, the ownership of the goods is not immediately transferred. It is only transferred when certain conditions mentioned in the agreement are fulfilled. Therefore, the agreement becomes a sale when these conditions are fulfilled and ownership is transferred. The correct answer states that the agreement becomes a sale "On the fulfillment of the conditions," which accurately reflects the concept of a conditional agreement becoming a sale.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Agreement to sellExplanation
A contract for the sale of 'future goods' refers to an agreement where the seller agrees to transfer ownership of goods to the buyer at a future date or upon the occurrence of a specific event. In this type of contract, the goods are not yet in existence or are not yet owned by the seller at the time of making the agreement. The agreement to sell is the appropriate term for such a contract, as it signifies the intention to transfer ownership in the future rather than an immediate sale.Rate this question:

-
Sale
-
Sale on approval
-
Agreement to sell
-
Hire-purchase
Correct Answer
A. Agreement to sellExplanation
An agreement to sell is a contract for the sale of goods where the property will pass to the buyer upon full payment of the price and execution of the title documents. This means that although the buyer has agreed to purchase the goods, the transfer of ownership will only occur once the buyer has fulfilled their payment obligations and the necessary paperwork has been completed. This type of contract differs from a sale where the property passes immediately upon payment.Rate this question:

A. There must be transfer of possession of goods.Explanation
The essential elements of a contract of sale include the presence of goods as subject matter, a price for the goods, and the transfer of property in the goods.

Correct Answer
A. VoidExplanation
A contract of sale made without consideration is void because consideration is an essential element of a valid contract.

A. Movable goodsExplanation
A contract of sale is a legal agreement between two parties where one party agrees to transfer ownership of movable goods to the other party in exchange for payment. Movable goods refer to items that can be physically moved or transferred, such as vehicles, furniture, and electronics.

A. None of these.Explanation
The subject matter of a contract of sale refers to what is being exchanged between the buyer and seller. In this case, the options provided are money and actionable goods. However, the correct answer is "None of these" because the subject matter of a contract of sale can only be goods.

Possession and custody of the goods may or may not be transferred depending on the terms of the contract, but the transfer of property is essential for the validity of the sale.Rate this question:

The consideration for a contract of sale is the price. In a contract of sale, the price is the amount of money or something of value that the buyer agrees to pay to the seller in exchange for the goods or services being sold. It is an essential element of the contract as it represents the value of the transaction and is necessary for the agreement to be legally enforceable.

A. May be partly in cash and partly in terms of valued up goods.Explanation
The consideration for a contract of sale may be partly in cash and partly in terms of valued up goods. This means that the payment for the sale can be made using a combination of cash and goods of value. It does not have to be solely in cash or solely in goods. This flexibility allows for negotiation and agreement between the buyer and seller on how the payment will be made, providing options that can benefit both parties involved.Rate this question:

None of these.
Correct Answer
A. There may be immediate delivery of goods, but the price to be paid at some future date.Explanation
In a contract of sale, it is possible for there to be immediate delivery of goods, but the payment for those goods can be deferred to a future date. This means that the buyer receives the goods right away, but is not required to pay for them immediately. This type of arrangement is commonly seen in installment plans or credit agreements, where the buyer can enjoy the use of the goods while making payments over time. This option is valid because it allows for flexibility in the timing of payment while still ensuring that the buyer receives the goods.Rate this question:
