Answer:

Check the following explanation

Explanation:

a) Usually a contract has the following elements:

Offer .

Acceptance .

Consideration .

Intention to create a legal relationship .

In the given case, the intention to create a legal relationship is missing. Though Study had sent a written legal contract to Burrow to affirm the contract, Burrow did not show any interest regarding the same. Hence Burrow can’t be sued for breach of contracts. Moreover the confirmation letter sent by Study does not qualify under the Merchant Memo Rule as the involved parties are not merchants. Burrow can use the terms of UCC for his favour. The UCC states that any contract with value more than $500 must be in writing. As the involved amount in this case is $1300, hence this case does not qualify as a contract under UCC.

b) If Study and Burrow were merchants, then the Merchant Memo Rule gets applicable. Then in that case, if 2 merchants enter into an oral contract, which is worth $500 or more and one of the merchant sends a written confirmation for the same, then a contract will be considered enforceable. In such a case, Burrow will be held liable for breach of contract and can be sued by Study.

One of the technical evaluators on a multi-million dollar source selection just told you that her husband was just offered a job
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The correct administrative remedy against such a contractor is to have them suspended.

Explanation:

The role of a technical evaluator is sensitive as it means that he or she would be privy to almost if not all information that has to do with the contract.

In the information provided, the technical evaluator's husband was offered a job at a company competing or bidding for a multi-million dollar contract she was also evaluating.

Their husband didn't ask for the job. They offered it so that they might gain information to their advantage.

The action of this contractor can be classified as fraudulent. One of the administrative actions that can be taken against such is to have them suspended with a threat to have their license permanently revoked if they should make a similar attempt again.

Your company is considering the replacement of an old delivery van with a new one that is more efficient. The old van cost $40,0
Helen [10]

Answer:

$51,164

Explanation:

The project's terminal cash flow is basically the cash flow of the project's last year.

depreciable value = $80,000 + $6,000 - $23,031 = $62,969

depreciation expense per year = $62,969 / 5 = $12,593.80 per year

net cash flow year 5 = [(savings - depreciation expense) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation expense + salvage value + recovery of net working capital = [($28,000 - $12,593.80) x (1 - 35%)] + $12,593.80 + $23,031 + $5,525 = $51,163.83 ≈ $51,164

A _______ is a prediction stated in a way that permits it to be tested.
DochEvi [55]
<span>A "hypothesis" is a prediction stated in a way that permits it to be tested.

Hypothesis refers to a particular statement of prediction. It depicts in concrete (instead of theoretical) terms what you expect will occur in your investigation. Not all examinations have hypotheses. Some of the time an investigation is intended to be exploratory. There is no formal hypothesis, and maybe the reason for the investigation is to investigate some territory all the more completely keeping in mind the end goal to build up some particular theory or forecast that can be tried in future research. A solitary report may have one or numerous hypotheses.

Elodia [21]
The statement is false. It would be an advantage to both the client and the organization. This would mean if the client needs a markdown from the provider they would need to pay the receipt inside 10 days to get the rebate, and this would then enable the organization to get their cash speedier.
