Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Swim Park can recover the loss of profit from the delayed opening because Restore Inc. was aware that timely performance was crucial for the seasonal opening of the park. The delay caused by Restore Inc. directly led to Swim Park's inability to open on time, resulting in a loss of profit which is a foreseeable and direct consequence of the breach of contract.
