Key Points Concerning A Sales Contract A sales contract embodies a set of different terms such as qKey Points Concerning A Sales ContractA sales contract embodies a set of different terms such as quality, quantity, payments, delivery, and insurance, etc. When the exporter and customer are negotiating, they should consider and agree upon these terms. Apparently, each party hopes to stipulate terms favorable for himself. But arrangements which are advantageous to one party are often disadvantageous to the other party. Therefore, some practical suggestions and tactics should be given adequate importance in negotiation of a contract. In this sector, you will have a look on the problems international trade negotiators may face and suggestions in solving them.Name of goodsIt is recommended that the names of goods to be exported correspond to the names used in the customs lists of the importing country, in order to minimize problems at customs, and to facilitate calculation of import duties.The exporter should be consistent in the names he uses for his products, referring to them precisely as he does in the catalogs he gives to the importers, for the purpose of avoiding any trouble of breach of an agreement for nonconforming goods.QuantityIn indicating length, weight, volume and so on, the metric system should be used unless the sale is between countries which use another system.For goods whose quantity could easily decrease during transportation, the biggest issue will be where and when to establish the quantity as a basis of payment and so on. The buyer wants the quantity to be determined upon receipt of the goods at his warehouse, while the seller wants to establish the quantity at the time of shipment at his plant. This issue can be solved only in connection with the closely related issues of risk of loss and insurance.QualityAn order specifying goods as per sample is apt to lead to trouble, because often it is not made clear that a sample is first requested as a basis for future orders, and because it is not always clear just how much deviation from the sample will be tolerated.It is therefore recommended that the quality of goods be specified by specifications or detailed description of samples and that these specifications or descriptions be made a part of the agreement.PriceThe contract price will be closely related to the conditions of delivery, such as FOB, CFR, or CIF. One of these delivery terms will be chosen after consideration of the economic and political factors involved. The problem here is that these terms are not always understood to mean the same thing. For example, in common practice, delivery is deemed completed, and title to the product and the risk of loss pass to the importer, upon shipment. This definition of delivery is called FOB. However, the definition of FOB under Incoterms differs from the definition used in the USA. Therefore, to avoid the problems arising from the different possible meanings of these terms, it is highly recommended that each of these terms, whenever used in an agreement, be defined in it.A drastic change in the foreign exchange rate could absorb all the profit expected from a transaction or could even cause a deficit. Both parties, therefore, may wish to establish their right to request a price change or to cancel the agreement in such a case.An importer can avoid this risk of foreign exchange rate by insisting on a price in his own country.DestinationIn the event that the destination port is too crowded ,and the exporters ship must wait for many days to enter the port, transportation expense will necessarily be increased. These will be borne by either the exporter or the importer depending upon the agreements made between the two. Even in CIF or CFR contracts, it is possible to provide that the importer will bear any additional port charge. If a port cannot be safely used because of war, the doctrine of force majeure usually excuses a ship from delivering products at the port. In such a case, the exporter should be allowed to deliver the goods at the nearest port possible, especially when the disabling disturbances continue for some time. In general, it is wise for the exporter to set forth in his contract a list of several ports at which the goods may be delivered.InsuranceThe exporter will want insurance to be taken out to cover war risks, strikes, riots, civil commotion, spontaneous combustion, and other risks of this type which are usually exempted from insurance. The exporter will want this coverage to be at the importers expense, by means of including the insurance premiums in CIF or CFR prices. Both parties should keep in mind that taking out of insurance will be closely related to the contract clause that allocates the risk of loss. A conlract should make clear when and where the risk of loss or damage passes from the exporter to the importer. The exporter then need not worry about loss or damage after the risk has passed to the importer; and the importer need not worry about insurance covering damages that occur before the risk passes to him.Customs dutyThere will be no dispute over the common practice that customs duties are to be paid by the importer. However, the importer will argue that the exporter must pay any additional duties imposed as a result of the exporters errors as to quantity or price indication, and that the exporter should pay any additional expense due to the exporters mistake or mishandling.The exporter will have to accept such an argument by the importer if the importer has provided clear instructions with regard to labeling, documentation, or other specifications affecting customs procedures with which the exporter has not complied.Questions for reading :Where and when to establish the quantity as a basis of payment and so on.$This issue can be solved only in connection with the closely related issues of risk of loss and insurance.$Yes.$By insisting on a price in his own country.$A contract should make clear when and where the risk of loss or damage passes from the exporter to the importer.12.

It is necessary for college students to go outside to get to know the world. They should acquire knowledge not only from books but also from the society. Thus they can adapt to society more quickly after they graduate from school.rn Science and technology are developing rapidly with each passing day. Most students can keep themselves informed by watching TV listening to the radio reading newspapers and using computers. Its also good to take a part-time job such as tutoring or working in a restaurant. Any of these methods will enable students to get in touch with society.rn Summer vacation is round the corner.

Communication Methods: Phones or Mails 写作要点： 1有人喜欢用电话交流，因为 2有人则喜Communication Methods: Phones or Mails 写作要点： 1有人喜欢用电话交流，因为 2有人则喜欢用书信交流，因为 3我的看法。正确答案：Communication is very important both in the past and at present and it tends to be more essential in modern society. Telephone and letter are two main means of communication they both have their advantages and disadvantages.rn Communication with other people by telephone is very convenient especially when you have something urgent. For example if one of your family members is seriously ill at night and you dont know how to deal with it and where to find a doctor or a taxi. What can you do? A telephone is the answer. Dial 120 and you will get services from the doctor very soon. In addition with the quick rhythm of life people usually dont have as much time to write letters as before again telephone solves the problem. Friends can chat through the wire. It seems that telephone shortens the distance between people. Men can keep in touch with each other more easily.rn However still some people prefer writing letters to communicate with friends. First sending a letter is much cheaper than having a telephone call. Now 60 jiao will be enough to send your letter to your friends living in another city while maybe at least 2-3 yuan a minute will be cost in distant telephone. Second people can not only greet each other but also exchange their thoughts in letters. Because when a person writes he must organize his mind and express his ideas and feelings more logically while telephone often makes people lazy. Finally people easily keep secret in the letter and say whatever you want to say while they sometimes cant do that in a telephone.rn In my opinion you can combine these two ways together: some unimportant things can be expressed by a telephone while some important or unspoken things can by done by a letter.Communicationisveryimportantbothinthepastandatpresent,andittendstobemoreessentialinmodernsociety.Telephoneandletteraretwomainmeansofcommunication,theybothhavetheiradvantagesanddisadvantages.Communicationwithotherpeoplebytelephoneisveryconvenient,especiallywhenyouhavesomethingurgent.Forexample,ifoneofyourfamilymembersisseriouslyillatnight,andyoudontknowhowtodealwithitandwheretofindadoctororataxi.Whatcanyoudo?Atelephoneistheanswer.Dial120andyouwillgetservicesfromthedoctorverysoon.Inaddition,withthequickrhythmoflife,peopleusuallydonthaveasmuchtimetowritelettersasbefore,againtelephonesolvestheproblem.Friendscanchatthroughthewire.Itseemsthattelephoneshortensthedistancebetweenpeople.Mencankeepintouchwitheachothermoreeasily.However,stillsomepeoplepreferwritingletterstocommunicatewithfriends.First,sendingaletterismuchcheaperthanhavingatelephonecall.Now60jiaowillbeenoughtosendyourlettertoyourfriendslivinginanothercity,whilemaybeatleast2-3yuanaminutewillbecostindistanttelephone.Second,peoplecannotonlygreeteachotherbutalsoexchangetheirthoughtsinletters.Becausewhenapersonwrites,hemustorganizehismindandexpresshisideasandfeelingsmorelogically,whiletelephoneoftenmakespeoplelazy.Finally,peopleeasilykeepsecretintheletterandsaywhateveryouwanttosay,whiletheysometimescan
