Douglas County sought bids for a construction project. Robert Taggart wanted to submit a bid but knew the project needed rock. H

e talked with some owners of a rock source and was told the rock was for sale but the price could not be determined until the other owner was consulted. Taggart prepared an incomplete bid, told his bookkeeper to get the rock price and complete the bid. Taggart left on vacation. The bookkeeper did so and submitted the bid. The bids were opened. Taggart’s bid was the lowest, but it was learned later that day that the rock was longer for sale. The next day the bookkeeper delivered a written bid withdrawal to the county. The county subsequently awarded the contract to Taggart.

Answer:

No, there is no contract between the two parties because of withdrawal of offer (Revocation) before the acceptance of the other party.

Explanation:

When one party offers another party and after some time the offer maker withdraws the offer by communicating that they had revoked then the offer is no more available to the other party and is often termed as Revocation. So when the offer maker revokes before the acceptance of the offer by the other party then their is no offer at consideration to the other party, which means if there is no offer then their can not be an acceptance of an offer and of course when there is no acceptance then there is no contract.

The communication of revocation was held before the acceptance of the offer of the other party which agains says that the contract was not actually formed.

Your business has purchased 500 pizza pans, 60 kg of sauce, 100 kg of cheese, 2.5 kg of basil, 2.5 kg of oregano, 5 kg of yeast,
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

400 pizzas

Explanation:

The complete question would be:

<em>You are going into the business of making pizzas. The following is the list of ingredients to make ONE pizza: </em>

<em>400 g flour           50 mL water </em>

<em>10 g yeast             120 g sauce </em>

<em>250 g cheese       5 g oregano </em>

<em>5 g basil </em>

<em>Your business has purchased 500 pizza pans, 60 kg of sauce, 100 kg of cheese, 2.5 kg of basil, 2.5 kg of oregano, 5 kg of yeast, and 200 kg of flour. You have as much water as you need. How many pizzas can you make? </em>

You are going to have to make a couple of conversions to do this. Since everything you need is indicated in grams, we first need to convert everything you have in grams.

There are 1,000 g in 1 kg. So now we convert them all:

60 kg of sauce

60kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 60,000g

100 kg of cheese

100kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 100,000g

2.5 kg of basil

2.5kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 2,500g

2.5 kg of oregano

2.5kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 2,500g

5 kg of yeast

5kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 5,000g

200 kg of flour

200kg \times \dfrac{1,000g}{1kg} = 200,000g

So now that we know what we have, we determine how many pizzas we can make with the amount of each ingredient. We get the ratio of each ingredient to one pizza to determine how many we can make:

<u>Flour:</u>

Available: 200,000g

Needed: 400g

200,000g\ of\ flour\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{400g\ of\ flour} = 500\ pizzas

<u>Yeast:</u>

Available: 5,000g

Needed: 10g

5,000g\ of\ yeast\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{10g\ of\ yeast} = 500\ pizzas

<u>Cheese:</u>

Available: 100,000g

Needed: 250g

100,000g\ of\ cheese\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{250g\ of\ cheese} = 400\ pizzas

<u>Basil:</u>

Available: 2,500g

Needed: 5g

<u />2,500g\ of\ basil\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{5g\ of\ yeast} = 500\ pizzas<u />

<u>Sauce:</u>

Available: 60,000g

Needed: 120g

<u />60,000g\ of\ sauce\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{120g\ of\ sauce} = 500\ pizzas<u />

<u>Oregano:</u>

Available: 2,500g

Needed: 5g

<u />2,500g\ of\ oregano\times\dfrac{1\ pizza}{5g\ of\ oregano} = 500\ pizzas<u />

We do not need to consider water, because it will provide as many as we will need.

So here we see that all but one ingredient is able to yield 500 pizzas. Cheese is the only one that yields less than 500, specifically 400 only. This is your limiting ingredient and this ingredient determines how many pizzas you can make. Because when you run out of cheese, you can no longer make a pizza.
