im mba student ,im new in businesslaw ,i dont know how to write this coursework,could please help me
Question 1
You are the owner of a business in England engaged in the sale of a variety of products to customers. Discuss, in the context of a sales transaction involving your firm (you may
select a transaction involving a particular product or products with which you are familiar),contractual provisions you would incorporate that would allow you to minimize your liabilities to customers while maximizing your rights against them. Your answer should
discuss the extent to which the law would permit you to gain the contractual advantages
you wish to obtain.
Question 2
"A limited company is more than a mere legal entity, with a personality in law of its own
... there is room in company law for recognition of the fact that behind it there are
individuals, with rights, expectations and obligations inter se which are not necessarily
submerged in the corporate structure." – Lord Wilberforce, in Ebrahimi v. Westbourne
Galleries Ltd [1973] AC 360.
Discuss the extent to which English company law recognises the rights and/or obligations
of individual shareholders, in relation to ONE of the following contexts:
(a) The rules that allow shareholders to minimise the liability of the company and
themselves to creditors;
(b) The rules governing remedies for maladministration of the company

Good afternoon!
As far as question 1, choose what kind of firm you will have (Will you sell tennis rackets? Bowler hats? A clothing line?). Next comes the main portion of the question; figure out what kind of an agreement you need to have between your company and your customers (are they individuals? Are they other firms? This will matter because they require different liability reference points.) to get you the least amount of responsibilities towards them, and at the same time allow them very few ramifications against you. If your instructor assigned a specific textbook for your course, this would be a good place to start as it may provide you with some general liability rules. It looks like your instructor is requiring you also to explain your choices in regards to how legal they are.
In question 2, it looks like the first section wants you to discuss English corporate law regarding individual shareholders pertaining to one of two choices. A: the laws that let shareholders limit their liabiilty in the company in regards to people they owe money to, or B, the laws ruling over fraud and other dishonest business practices. Again, if you have a textbook, this is a good place to start.
You may also want to begin an online search using keywords such as "maladministration and English company law", "English company law and rights/obligations of shareholders" and other like phrases.
I hope this helps you get started!
Regards,
Gloria

Good morning!
What is it that is confusing you, exactly? If it is the content of the question or what your instructor expects, please contact them for clarification. I have explained the outline and framework in my above post, so if there is something else that is particularly puzzling you, please let me know.
Regards,

Good afternoon.
There are many different reference styles used; APA, MLA, Harvard, British English. The type required depends on your instructor. In your syllabus the instructor may state which style he/she requires. If he/she does not, you will need to ask him/her which style you are to use.
Once you know which style you need to use, you can do an internet search using keywords including the reference style (i.e. "APA") and "examples". This will bring up in text and/or works cited page examples that you can model from.
As far as commercial and business law coursework being different from other coursework, this is up to your instructor.

Good morning!
Software are goods; once you purchase it you can hold it in your hands, it is tangible. As far as whether or not it is covered under UK contract law, as I am not an expert in your subject area, unfortunately I cannot help you with that.
