1921. Buyer’s Damages for Purchase or Acquisition of

Property—Lost Profits

[Name of plaintiff] may recover damages for profits [or other gains]

[he/she/it] would have made if the property had been as

represented. [Name of plaintiff] can recover these profits [or other

gains] only if [he/she/it] has proved all of the following:

1. That [name of plaintiff] acquired the property for the

purpose of using or reselling it for a [profit/gain];

2. That [name of plaintiff] reasonably relied on [name of

defendant]’s [false representation/failure to disclose/promise]

in entering into the transaction and in anticipating [profits/

gains] from the use or sale of the property; and

3. That [name of defendant]’s [false representation/failure to

disclose/promise] and [name of plaintiff]’s reliance on it were

both substantial factors in causing the lost profits.

You do not have to calculate the amount of the lost profits with

mathematical precision, but there must be a reasonable basis for

computing the loss.
