Explain the following concepts.a. Hire purchase system. b. Installment payment system. 

Answer»

A. The hire purchase system is essentially a contract for hiring of goods. The ownership rights remain with the seller and the customer exercises his option for purchasing the goods. The buyer can return the goods at any stage. The seller can also take back the goods in case of non-payment. 

B. When goods are sold and payment is agreed to be made in installments, it is known as installment payment system. In this case if there is default in payment of any installment by the buyer, the seller cannot ask for the goods to be returned as the ownership rights pass to be buyer when goods are sold and initial payment is made. The seller can only sue the buyer in a law court for payment of the balance due
