MLS Construction LLC asked MD Drilling and Blasting Inc. to do rock drilling and blasting work required for an excavation projec

t. MD had previously done work for MLS but had not been fully paid. MD agreed to do the work if MLS made a significant payment on the balance due. MLS agreed and gave MD a check for $15,000. MD began work and the same day faxed an unsigned written airpayment to MLS. Two weeks later, MD learned that MLS had stopped payment on the check. MD stopped work on the project and sued MLS for breach of contract. MLS argued that the unsigned agreement that MD faxed revoked the original offer, and therefore there was no contract. Did it?

Answer:

MD did not revoke their offer, so the contract was valid.

Explanation:

First of all, in order for an offer to be revoked, it must be done before the other party accepts the offer. Once the other party accepted the offer, a contract is formed. E.g. the offeror made a promise but revoked it before the offeree accepted, it is not valid anymore. But this didn't happen in this case, both sides agreed on the offer, so a binding contract exists.

MLS cannot revoke its offer at will simply because they want to, specially after receiving something of value in exchange. MD had already began working, so they had already given consideration to MLS.

In order for a revocation to be valid, it must be communicated to the other party before the acceptance, and that didn't happen here. Just because someone in MLS shouted out loud or told a friend that the offer was revoked, doesn't revoke it.

Answer:

Yes of course,the statement is true as the cheque that Mr. MLS gave him was not accepted in written format and when the written agreement was faxed , then also it was not signed by the required authorities. thus there is no authentication that it was agreed upon or not.

Which of these statements about liquidity traps is false? Firms are unlikely to undertake investment during liquidity traps beca
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: firms are unlikely to undertake investment.

Explanation:

The liquidity trap is a situation described in the Keynesian economy according to which, liquidity injections into the private banking system by the central bank do not lower interest rates or inject money into the economy and therefore do not stimulate economic growth as claimed by monetarism.

The liquidity trap occurs when people accumulate cash because they expect an adverse event, such as deflation, reduction in aggregate demand and GDP, an increase in the unemployment rate or a war. People are not buying, companies are not borrowing and banks are not lending either because they do not have enough solvency since the economic outlook is uncertain and investors do not invest because the expected returns on investments are low.

The most common characteristics of a liquidity trap are interest rates close to zero and fluctuations in the monetary base that do not translate into fluctuations in general price levels.

Garcel, Inc. held unfinished inventory at a cost of $85,000 with a sales value of $125,000. The inventory will cost $10,500 to c
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Net realizable value (NRV) will be:

= $125,000 - $10,500

= $114,500

Normal profit will be:

= $114,500 - (30% × $125,000)

= $114,500 - $37,500

= $77,000

The amount should Garcel report as inventory on its balance sheet should be $77,000.

Gwar [14]

Octavia should tell the customer that she doesn’t know the answer right now, but she will try to figure it out as soon as possible, and it may take a few days.

Another great option is for Octavia to ask a coworker right away who may know the answer to the question.
