Pacific Oil Ltd (Pacific), a manufacturer of petroleum products, acquired a vacant block of land for the purpose of operating a petrol station. The block was on a very busy street, and Pacific estimated that 800,000 litres of petrol per year could be sold from this location. However, the planning authority refused to allow Pacific to build the station so that it fronted (faced) the street (the forecasted petrol sales were based on the assumption that the petrol station fronted the busy street). Instead, the petrol station was hidden behind a building, with only a sign on the busy street directing the customers to the petrol station. Pacific did not change their estimate
