Question 1

Which of the following is true regarding the Uniform Commercial Code?
A) It does not affect the making of an agreement and only applies after an agreement is formed.
B) It applies only in situations not addressed at all by the common law.
C) It applies only to clarify common law in situations in which the common law is unclear.
D) It applies in all situations involving agreements.
E) Some elements of a contract under the common law have been modified under the UCC for contracts for the sale of goods.

Question 2

When distinguishing an offer from an invitation to negotiate, which of the following is accurate?
A) Whether an offer in fact existed is a question of law.
B) Whether an offer in fact existed is a question of fact.
C) Whether an offer in fact existed is a mixed question of law and fact.
D) Whether an offer in fact existed depends solely on whether the alleged offer included a specific price.
E) Whether an offer in fact existed depends solely on whether an acceptance of the alleged offer was made immediately so that the offeror knew he or she was bound.

Accepted Answer

Determining whether an offer existed is a question of fact because it involves examining the intentions of the parties involved and the circumstances surrounding the communication to decide if an offer was indeed made. This assessment is based on the facts of each case rather than predefined legal rules.

Question 3

Judith, an ill-tempered business law teacher, offers $50 to any student who will mow her lawn. Peter goes right over and begins mowing. Just before he finishes, Judith goes over and tells him that she revokes her offer. Which of the following is true regarding Peter's entitlement to payment?
A) Peter is not entitled to payment because a bilateral contract was involved that could only be accepted by full performance prior to revocation.
B) Peter is not entitled to payment because a unilateral contract was involved that could only be accepted by full performance prior to revocation.
C) Peter is entitled to only a proportional recovery based on the amount of work he had done prior to the revocation because Judith always retained the right to validly revoke.
D) Peter is entitled to recover because a unilateral contract was involved, and he was entitled to a reasonable amount of time to complete the job.
E) Peter is entitled to recover because a bilateral contract was involved, and he was entitled to a reasonable amount of time to complete the job.

Accepted Answer

Peter is entitled to recover because a unilateral contract was involved, and he was entitled to a reasonable amount of time to complete the job. In a unilateral contract, the offeror promises to pay after the offeree performs a specific task. Once Peter began mowing the lawn, Judith was obligated to give him a reasonable amount of time to finish the task before she could revoke the offer.

Question 4

[Used Car Sales] Edwin sells used cars. He is looking for a way to increase sales and profits so that he can take his girlfriend on a nice diving trip to the Grand Cayman Islands. The first thing that Edwin does is say that during the first week of December, he will give a $500 rebate on used cars that are under two years old. To spice things up, he also offers to sell any car on the lot that is over five years old for $1,000 to the first three customers who can jump rope for ten hours straight on December 7th. Edwin was not very concerned about the jumping rope issue because he thought that no one would be able to jump rope for ten hours straight. Edwin put an advertisement pertaining to the rebate and the jump rope opportunity in the local newspaper. The promotion went over very well. Although Edwin had several cars available, he ran out of cars under two years old within one day. During the rest of the week shoppers were told that cars of that description were no longer available. Josh was very angry at Edwin for not having a car available that was under two years old so that he could get a good deal and a $500 rebate. On December 7th, while Edwin was watching people jump rope, Brandi was shopping for a car. She was in college and did not have much money. She saw one, an older car, a real clunker, that she liked; but wasn't sure if it could be repaired sufficiently to be dependable. Edwin had not even put a price on it because he planned to have it crushed. Brandi was going to talk to her parents about it. Edwin eventually approached her, and Brandi asked him if he would take $450 for the car. Edwin said, "Yes, sold." Brandi tried to explain that she needed to talk to her parents first, but Edwin would not hear of it. While Edwin was still fuming from his encounter with Brandi, Zack walked up and started to criticize the nature of Edwin's inventory. Edwin told him that he had great cars. Zack pointed at a beater that was banged up, had 200,000 miles on it, and a cracked windshield. Zack said, "Sure, I'll pay $100,000 for that car!" Edwin said, "Sold." Zack said, "Wait a minute. I was only kidding." Edwin said, "No way." Meanwhile all the people jumping rope dropped out well prior to ten hours except for Emma. She completed the jumping rope and asked for her car for $1,000. Edwin refused saying that the offer was revoked. Josh and Emma sued Edwin, and Edwin sued Zack and Brandi. Under the applicable law in Edwin's state, common law will be applied, and there are no state statutes impacting the situation.
-What is the most likely result in the lawsuit brought by Emma against Edwin?
A) Edwin will win because he was only engaged in preliminary negotiations.
B) Edwin will win because the advertisement was simply inviting customers, such as Emma, to make an offer.
C) Edwin will win because he properly revoked the offer.
D) Emma will win because the ad would be treated as an offer that she properly accepted.
E) Emma will win because she properly made an offer that was accepted by Edwin when she did the jump roping.

Accepted Answer

Emma will win because the advertisement for the $1,000 car to the first three customers who could jump rope for ten hours straight constitutes an offer in the eyes of the law. By completing the jump rope challenge, Emma accepted this offer through her performance, thus forming a binding contract. Edwin's refusal to sell the car at the advertised price breaches this contract.

Question 5

[Saturday Auction] Randy, an auctioneer, held an auction on a Saturday morning. At the beginning of the auction, Randy announced that the auction was being held without reserve. Erin, Maria, and Steve were all in attendance. Erin saw an old cash register with a stuck drawer that she thought would look great in her den. The auctioneer put the cash register up for sale noting that the drawer was stuck but that it could probably be fixed with little effort. Erin bought it for $20. When she got it home, she discovered that it actually contained $5,000 in cash. Unfortunately, Erin had a teenage son who started bragging to his friends about the family's good fortune. Randy heard about what had happened and sued Erin for return of the $5,000. At the same auction, Maria saw a great deal on a used table, and bid $20 on it. No one else bid anything. Randy announced that $20 was clearly insufficient for the table, that it was worth much more than that, and that he was taking it out of the auction. Steve started bidding on a diamond ring for his girlfriend. He bid $2,000. Just as Randy was getting ready to say "Sold," Steve looked over at his girlfriend, decided that he was not sure about marriage, and jumped up yelling "I revoke." Randy, however, immediately after, yelled "Sold." Randy sues Steve attempting to obtain the money for the engagement ring. Randy also sues Erin seeking to recover the $5,000 contained in the stuck drawer. Maria sues Randy attempting to obtain possession of the table.
-In the lawsuit in which Randy sues Erin for return of the $5,000, which of the following is the most likely result?
A) Randy will win because when an auction is held without reserve, the auctioneer is entitled to repossess any item at will.
B) Randy will lose only because he was not the actual seller. He was only selling at auction for someone else. The seller, however, would win in an action against Erin.
C) Randy would win because Erin made an insufficient offer.
D) Erin will win only if she can show that Randy had knowledge that cash was in the drawer before he sold it.
E) Erin will win because the auction was without reserve, and she properly bid on and bought the cash register with everyone knowing that the cash drawer was stuck.

Accepted Answer

Erin will win because the auction was without reserve, and she properly bid on and bought the cash register with everyone knowing that the cash drawer was stuck. In an auction without reserve, once the auctioneer accepts a bid, the item is sold to the highest bidder as is, including any contents or additional value the item may have that was not known at the time of sale.

Question 6

Which of the following was the result in the case in the text Adone v. Paletto involving the rejection of a purported acceptance of an offer of compromise because it was not made within the time limit of 10 days specified in the offer?
A) Rejection of the acceptance was unjustified because offers of compromise may not contain time limits.
B) Rejection of the acceptance was unjustified because allowing only 10 days for acceptance is unreasonable.
C) Rejection of the acceptance was unjustified because of the plaintiffs' severe injuries.
D) Rejection of the acceptance was enforceable because a trial had already been held.
E) Rejection of the acceptance was enforceable because the 10 days in which the other party had to accept had expired.

Accepted Answer

The rejection of the acceptance was enforceable because the acceptance was not made within the specified time limit of 10 days as outlined in the offer, making the late acceptance invalid.

Question 7

Mari tells Daniel that she will mow his yard during the summer for $800. Daniel considers it and then drops a note in the mail to Mari telling her that he rejects her offer. However, he thinks about it again and calls her to tell her that he accepts the offer before she receives his rejection. Which of the following is true under the mailbox rule?
A) The offer was no longer outstanding because of the rejection.
B) Daniel could not accept verbally.
C) Daniel validly accepted, but his acceptance was revoked when Mari received the rejection.
D) The acceptance was invalid because the mailbox rule requires that the time of payment be specifically set forth before an acceptance is formalized.
E) The acceptance is valid, and the rejection has no effect.

Accepted Answer

The mailbox rule states that an acceptance is effective upon dispatch, provided that the mode of acceptance is either expressly or impliedly authorized by the offeror. In this case, Daniel's acceptance via phone call is effective when he made the call, before Mari received the rejection letter. Therefore, the acceptance is valid, and the subsequent arrival of the rejection letter has no effect on the validity of the acceptance.

Question 8

Hermine left a very high paying job to join John's law firm based on John's promise to give her a job if she would come to his firm. John tells Hermine that he really did not want to give her the job and she should not have quit her job. If Hermine sues John, which doctrine may courts use to estop, or prevent, John from revoking his offer?
A) Promissory estoppel
B) Reliance on a promise rule
C) Contract essential rule
D) Ethical conduct rule
E) Doctrine of equitable treatment

Accepted Answer

Promissory estoppel is a legal principle that prevents a party from withdrawing a promise made to a second party if the latter has reasonably relied on that promise to their detriment. In this case, Hermine left her high paying job based on John's promise, which she relied upon to her detriment, making promissory estoppel applicable.

Question 9

The Uniform Electronic Transactions Act seems to create what?
A) An electronic version of the mailbox rule.
B) An exception to option contracts made by email.
C) An electronic way to accept a contract.
D) An exception that allows courts to forgo the mailbox rule.
E) An exception that allows for unilateral contracts to be binding as soon as the offer is made.

Accepted Answer

The Uniform Electronic Transactions Act creates an electronic version of the mailbox rule, which states that a contract is formed when an acceptance is sent, not when it is received.

Under the applicable law in Edwin's state, common law will be applied, and there are no state statutes impacting the situation.
-What is the most likely result in Edwin's lawsuit against Brandi in which he claims that she must pay $450 for the car at issue?
A) Edwin will win because Brandi made an offer that he properly accepted.
B) Edwin will win because Brandi agreed to pay a reasonable amount for the vehicle.
C) Brandi will win because the agreement was not put into written form and signed by both parties.
D) Brandi will win because she merely expressed interest and did not make an offer.
E) Brandi will win because she was not provided sufficient time in which to consider the offer.

Accepted Answer

Brandi will win because she merely expressed interest in discussing the purchase with her parents before making a final decision, indicating that she did not make a definitive offer that could be accepted to form a binding contract.

Question 11

[Saturday Auction] Randy, an auctioneer, held an auction on a Saturday morning. At the beginning of the auction, Randy announced that the auction was being held without reserve. Erin, Maria, and Steve were all in attendance. Erin saw an old cash register with a stuck drawer that she thought would look great in her den.

Randy, however, immediately after, yelled "Sold." Randy sues Steve attempting to obtain the money for the engagement ring. Randy also sues Erin seeking to recover the $5,000 contained in the stuck drawer. Maria sues Randy attempting to obtain possession of the table.
-What is the likely result in the lawsuit brought by Maria against Randy for the table?
A) Randy will win because Maria was simply making an offer that he was free to decline.
B) Randy will win because the price was clearly insufficient for the table.
C) Randy will win because no acceptance occurred.
D) Maria will win because the auction was without reserve, and Randy had agreed to accept the highest bid.
E) Randy will win because he did not inform attendees in writing that the auction was without reserve.

Accepted Answer

Maria will win because the auction was announced as being without reserve, which means that the auctioneer is obligated to sell to the highest bidder, regardless of the bid amount. Since Maria was the highest bidder for the table, even at $20, Randy is legally bound to sell the table to her at that price.

Question 12

Which of the following is true of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act rule for emails?
A) It is an act prohibiting emails from constituting acceptance to an offer.
B) It provides that an email is considered received when it enters an information processing system designated by the recipient, provided certain criteria are met.
C) It is a repudiation of the mailbox rule for email.
D) It is an act establishing the circumstances under which an email can be considered an offer.
E) It is a rule establishing when an email creates an implied contract.

Accepted Answer

The Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) includes provisions that determine when an electronic communication, such as an email, is considered received. Specifically, it states that an email is considered received when it enters the recipient's designated information processing system, if the system is set up to receive such communications, among other criteria. This is part of the broader framework of the UETA, which facilitates and gives legal recognition to electronic transactions and communications.

Question 13

According to the Restatement, if no mode of communication is specified in the offer, then ________.
A) the offer is invalid
B) the acceptance is valid, but only if made within a month
C) the acceptance cannot be valid
D) any reasonable means of acceptance is valid
E) there must be a written acceptance of the offer to be valid

Accepted Answer

The Restatement allows for acceptance by any reasonable means when no specific mode of communication is specified in the offer, recognizing the flexibility needed in contract law to accommodate various circumstances.

Question 14

Which of the below rules allows that an acceptance is valid when it is placed in the mailbox?
A) The Acceptance Rule
B) The Contract Rule
C) The Reasonable Rule
D) The Mailbox Rule
E) The Contract Legality Rule

Accepted Answer

The Mailbox Rule, also known as the postal rule, is a legal principle that states an acceptance is considered effective once it is dispatched by the offeror, not when it is received by the offeror. This rule applies primarily to contract law, making the communication of acceptance complete as soon as the letter of acceptance is placed in the control of the postal service.

A) Edwin will win because Zack properly made an offer that Edwin accepted.
B) Zack will win because he was merely expressing possible interest.
C) Zack will win because Edwin did not properly accept.
D) Zack will win because under a subjective standard he was joking.
E) Zack will win because under an objective standard, it appears he was joking.

Accepted Answer

Zack will win because under an objective standard, it appears he was joking. Offering $100,000 for a car that is clearly not worth that amount, especially given its described condition, would be seen by a reasonable person as not a serious offer but a sarcastic remark.

C) Faxes are effective as determined by the court's fact-based assessment of the particular case.
D) Faxes are not a valid form of acceptance.

-Which of the following is the most likely result in the lawsuit brought by Josh complaining that Edwin ran out of cars available for a rebate?
A) Josh will win because Edwin was required to have sufficient cars on hand for anyone who requested one.
B) Josh will win because a rebate was involved.
C) Josh will win because Edwin should have run another ad revoking the offer.
D) Josh will lose because he did not properly accept the offer.

Which of the following provides that a revocation is effective only when received by the offeree?
A) The Acceptance Rule
B) The Contract Rule
C) The Reasonable Rule
D) The Mailbox Rule
