QUESTION 1

Ana, aged 16 is a famous actress and entered into a contract with Farah to buy a set of beauty product worth RM1000. She paid RM100 for deposit and the balance of RM900 will be paid later when she gets her bonus at the end of the month. However, when the time came, she refused to pay to Farah the said sum, claiming that she did not need it and asked for the refund of RM100. Farah neglected her claim and said she had the right to keep the deposit as Ana breached her contract with her.

Ana also bought an air-fryer from Seng Seng Electrical that costs her RM1500. She paid a deposit of RM200 and promised to pay later. She again breached the contract and now Seng Seng Electrical is claiming for RM1300 from her.

Meanwhile, Hariz, a film producer offered Ana a role in his latest production. Hariz offered a sum of RM100000 for her role as the lead actress and promised to pay bonus from the profit of the film. Hariz has paid RM20000 for the initial deposit. After the film had been completed, Hariz paid another RM30000 to Ana. Later, Hariz and his company has some issues with the marketing of the film. Hariz ended to bear losses because the film did not manage to get screened because of the pandemic Covid-19. Hariz is unable to pay the balance of RM50000 and the bonus to Ana as promised.
