I've had similar experiences both when giving and receiving such assignments. As it was explained to me when I was an associate and as I've explained to associates as a partner, clients are often unclear as to what exactly they're asking. You can ask clarifying questions; sometimes that helps, sometimes not. But always make your response to the client in a written memo or letter (email's OK) that clearly delineates the question you're addressing and what you're not addressing.
