Week 3 Business Obligations 850 words 15 marks Mabel is a Director and Shareholder of a Propriety Company named, ‘Mabel’s Anime Nation Pty Ltd’ (‘the Company’). There are other shareholders of the Company including some private investors. Recently at a Directors meeting, all the Directors decided that the Company would host an Anime Convention. At the same meeting, the Directors (including Mabel) were provided with a list of catering contractor prices and information about the quality ranking 5 different food caterer services. At the meeting, Mabel takes charge and advised the other Directors that Freds Catering is the preferred candidate. Yet, a close reading of the contactor prices/quality document would have shown that Freds catering was rated third. It also just so happens that Mabel owns a majority interest in Freds catering. She does not tell her fellow Directors. When the agreed contract price for Freds catering goes before the Directors for approval none of the Directors question the amount of $300,000. The quotation document is wrong and overpriced as it includes food for 3000 people yet only 1000 tickets are to be sold. Due to the mismanagement of this event the company is now in debt. Creditors are looking to be paid. Shareholders are angry about some of the Director’s decisions. Address the following questions: What legal liability might all the Directors have? Identify and explain the circumstances. Use case law and legislation where you can to justify your answer).What legal liability might Mabel have beyond the other Directors? Identify and explain the circumstances. Use case law and legislation to justify your answer.

Week 5 Contract Formation 300 words 10 marks A list of Anime ‘merchandise’ was advertised earlier, on various formats, for $100.00. This included ‘violet evergarden’ dolls for $100.00. Jill sees the advertisement on the internet the day before the Convention. It just so happens that the ‘violet evergarden’ doll factory had just burnt down in Japan, making these dolls much more valuable (they were now worth $10,000)! In a couple of places at the Convention, the sign advertising the dolls for $100.00 have not been taken down.
