Answer:

mutual mistake

Explanation:

A mutual mistake happens when all the parties involved in a contract (two or more) are mistaken or do not know the correct information about some specific material fact that is relevant to the contract. In this case, the contract can be rescinded because Harry believes that Ryan wants to buy his Cadillac, while Ryan believes Harry is selling his Porsche.  

Since both of them are mistaken and do not know relevant material facts regarding the contract, the contract can be terminated.

Martha was promised a 10% raise if she wins a contract with the city government. Martha could use the money to pay off some debt
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The answer is expectancy.

Explanation:

Expectancy theory is a concept developed by Victor H. Vroom in 1964, where he postulated, that the strength an individual has in terms of his or her motivation to do an action, would appear when three components are satisfied to a certain value: expectancy, instrumentality, and valence. The question above is relevant to the expectancy component, which is detailed as the belief that an individual has regarding their efforts would result in the individual choosing to perform an action. In the case of Martha, she wasn’t sure that her efforts in trying to win the contract would lead to her 10% raise (outcome, a component of instrumentality), and thus, she decided not to try.

Run Like the Wind sells ceiling fans. Target profit for the year is $470,000. If each fan's contribution margin is $32 and fixed
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

c. 21,645

Explanation:

The computation of number of fans required to meet the company's goal is shown below:

= (Fixed cost+ target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)  

= ($222,640 + $470,000) ÷ ($32)

= ($692,640) ÷ ($32)

= $21,645

The contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit  

Therefore, the number of fans equal to $21,645  

We calculated by above formula.
