The Queen's Wardrobe,a dressmaking boutique,agrees to make Rhonda's wedding dress for $2,000.The dress is to be ready for her wedding on June 1.On May 14,owner Jane called Rhonda to tell her that the dress would not be ready on time unless Rhonda agreed to pay an extra $500 so that Jane could hire someone to help her finish the lace embroidery.Rhonda is very upset and,feeling that she has no other choice,agrees.When she picks up the dress,she tells Jane that she does not think that it is fair that she should have to pay more than they had agreed upon and refuses to do so.
A) Since Rhonda has received the benefit of Jane having paid the extra money to get the dress completed on time,she must pay the extra money.
B) By agreeing to pay and then refusing to do so,Rhonda has committed tort of deceit and a court would award Jane the $500.
C) Since Jane was obligated under the contract to make the dress for $2,000,there is no consideration for Rhonda's promise to pay more and it is therefore unenforceable.
D) Since Rhonda agreed to pay more,she has altered the terms of the contract and must therefore pay the extra $500.
E) Since the cost of hiring the extra worker to finish the embroidery was the consideration Jane gave for Rhonda for the money,she must pay it.
