In the given scenario, if the fruit market does not pay cash to the farmer but rather sends a check the following week, then the farmer must object if he may want to rely on the late payment as grounds for later canceling the contract. If the fruit market does this every week and the farmer does not object, the farmer will be unable later to cancel the contract for that reason.
