Which remedy concerns reasonable expenses added due to breach?

Liquidated damages are a contract remedy where the parties pre-agree on a fixed amount to be paid if a breach occurs. This approach recognizes that actual damages and the related reasonable expenses can be hard to prove or foresee, so the fixed sum is meant to cover those foreseeable costs from the breach. The amount must be reasonable in light of the anticipated harm and not function as a penalty. By setting a pre-estimated remedy for the expenses that will arise, liquidated damages directly address those reasonable costs tied to the breach.
