Bob, age 17, has entered into a contract to buy a car. The contract is: a. voidable. b. void. c. voidable only if Bob can return

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": voidable.

Explanation:

Voidable contracts are those that cannot be enforced because one or the two parties involved are not legally eligible to go on in such an agreement. Reasons to void a contract include but are not limited to failure to disclose material facts, legal incapacity to enter a contract or inconsistent contractual terms.

Thus, Bob's contract to purchase a car is voidable since he is legally incapable of signing agreements due to his age (17 years old).
