Answer:
What is entirely true about this contract is:
The contract is a VALID contract but is also a VOIDABLE contract on the part of Larry but NOT on the part of Sprint.
Explanation:
As a minor, Larry (he was under the age of 18 when he signed the contract with Sprint) lacks the contractual capacity to enter into the contractual relationship with Sprint. But since he has signed the contract in exchange for the purchase of the cell phone, Larry can either honor the deal or void the contract. This is why the contract is said to be valid but voidable at Larry's behest. However, after Larry has turned 18, if he has not done anything to void the contract, then the contract with Sprint can no longer be voided.

Answer:
Heinz sells ketchup and other sauces and condiments. Their demand is relatively stable and doesn't change that much year after year. The demand for their products is not that seriously affected by economic recessions or expansions.
On the other hand, Sony is a consumer electronics company and the demand for their products can vary drastically from one year to another. It depends on trends and innovations, and their total sales are affected by disposable income (expansions increase disposable income while recessions decrease it).
FedEx is also affected severely by economic recessions or expansions. Since FedEx ships and transports goods, when the economy is booming, FedEx is doing excellent. But if the economy starts to cool down or enters a recession, the amount of goods transported falls.
