Cevap

The failure to deliver raw cocoa beans on time corresponds to Breach of contract. The untruthful claim about the commercial oven corresponds to Misrepresentation. The new government decree making timber export illegal corresponds to Frustration. The claim for partial carpentry work executed corresponds to Quantum meruit.
The commercial events correctly match their legal concepts: failure of performance is a breach of contract; false statements inducing agreement constitute misrepresentation; supervening legal impossibility constitutes frustration; and claiming payment for partial work rendered is quantum meruit.
