,Choose the most correct option in every instance.

the amount is owing in terms of their contract. Unbeknown to B, his bookkeeper, C
had already paid the amount a week earlier by way of an electronic funds transfer into
the account of A. At the time of the second payment A's account was overdrawn in
the amount of R30,000 and was therefore in credit of R20,000 after the payment. A has
taken R15,000 out of his account to pay his employees their monthly wages. He has
also paid R10,000 for a luxury weekend after realising that his account was in credit.

secuta.

requirements for an enrichment action is correct?

not due.

(3) Assume the same facts as in question (1). Which statement best explains the
calculation of the enrichment claim?

received the benefit of the other R30,000.
2. B can claim nothing as A has not been unjustifiably enriched at his expense.
3. B can claim only R25,000 because the rest of the enrichment amount has been spent on
the wages and A's holiday.
√4. B can claim only R40,000 because the rest of the enrichment amount has been lost on
the luxury holiday.

paid. (2)

falls away. (2)
