Forums › ACCA Forums › ACCA LW Corporate and Business Law Forums › ACCA F4 Practice Test Question Possible Mistake?
Hi,
I recently purchased some practice tests on the MyACCA website and one of the questions (below) doesn’t quite make sense to me, am I misinterpreting the question, answer or have the ACCA made a mistake here? As I read what their explanation for the correct answer should be it seems to contradictory.
Which of the following statements about specific performance is NOT true?
It can be ordered where the court can supervise the order
It can be granted at the court’s discretion
It is not available where an injunction would be a more appropriate remedy
It can be ordered where damages would be inadequate
Correct Answer
It can be ordered where the court can supervise the order
Specific performance will only be granted where the common law remedy of damages is insufficient to compensate a claimant. It will not be available in cases where the court would have to supervise compliance. All equitable remedies are granted only at the court’s discretion.
