Ans To The Q

1. Asif bought two small ships from Rakib relying on particulars furnished by Rakib that the deadweight capacity of each ship was 460 tons. However, the actual capacity was only 360 tons. 2. The doctrine of caveat emptor applies, meaning the buyer bears the responsibility for their choice. Under this doctrine, it is the duty of the buyer to carefully inspect goods before purchasing to ensure they meet requirements, and the seller has no duty to disclose defects unless asked. 3. Asif should cancel this contract as the fitness or quality of the ships became an implied condition based on what Rakib represented, but the ships did not meet that condition.
