Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Entrepreneur Enterprises' best argument is that Digital Storage, Inc.'s mistake was a unilateral mistake, meaning only one party was mistaken. In such a case, relief from the contract may be granted to the mistaken party if enforcing the contract would be unconscionable or the other party knew or should have known of the mistake. However, in this scenario, since Entrepreneur Enterprises knew or should have known that the price was mistakenly low, enforcing the contract would not be unconscionable, and therefore Entrepreneur Enterprises would not be entitled to relief from the contract. Option A and B are incorrect because they assert that relief cannot be granted in cases of bilateral mistake and mistake of value, respectively, but in this case, unilateral mistake is the applicable category. Option D is also incorrect because the price being below that of comparable devices is not a relevant argument in this scenario.
