Louis P. SANTI and Opal E. Santi, Appellants/Cross Appellees, v. COHMAR ASSOCIATES, INC., Appellee/Cross Appellant.
    No. 87-2530.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Feb. 22, 1989.
    Jeff M. Brown and Larry E. Schner of Lavalle, Wochna, Rutherford & Brown, P.A., Boca Raton, for appellants/cross ap-pellees.
    Louisa Smith-Adam of Montgomery, Se-arcy & Denney, P.A., and Philip M. Burlington of Edna L. Caruso, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellee/cross appellant.
   PER CURIAM.

Affirmed; however, we find error in the trial court’s refusal to include prejudgment interest on the $125,000.00 award and we remand with directions to compute and award prejudgment interest. See Argonaut Insurance Co. v. May Plumbing Co., 474 So.2d 212 (Fla.1985); Law v. Blue Lagoon-Pompano, Inc., 470 So.2d 33 (Fla. 4th DCA 1985).

HERSEY, C.J., and FRANK, RICHARD H., Associate Judge, concur.

STONE, J., dissents with opinion.

STONE, Judge,

dissenting.

I dissent because I consider the damages to be speculative and because the lower court applied the wrong measure of damages.
