Strike offers to sell Bailey one thousand shirts for a stated price. The offer declares that shipment will be made by Dependable

Truck Line. Bailey replies, "I accept your offer for one thousand shirts at the price quoted. Delivery to be by Yellow express Truck Line." Both Strike and Bailey are merchants. Three weeks later, Strike ships the shirts by Dependable Truck Line, and Bailey refuses to accept delivery. Strike sues for breach of contract. Bailey claims that there never was a contract because his reply, which included a modification of carriers, did not constitute an acceptance. Bailey further claims that even if there had been a contract, Strike would have been in breach because Strike shipped the shirts by Dependable, contrary to the contracts terms. Discuss fully Bailey’s claims.

Answer:

We can assume that both Strike and Bailey are American companies and that they operate in that US under the UCC rules. Under UCC rules they are both considered merchants since they trade with the goods related to the contract.  Strike's offer was very precise and Bailey's acceptance was made in a reasonable manner which can be considered a valid acceptance.

The only difference exists with the shipping company, which the UCC rules consider a conflicting term and Strike should have either objected or ratified it before sending the goods. Since Strike didn't object Bailey's terms, then by using a different truck company it is breaching the contract.

andriy [413]

Answer:

Debt payments-to-income ratio with the college loan

= 23%

2. Carl:

Percentage spent on home and car

= 65.3%

3. Debt payment to income ratio

= 40%

Explanation:

Kim's Data and Calculations:

Gross income = $1,760

Income taxes         -199

After Tax Income $1,561 per month

Credit card debts = $189 per month

School loan = $172 per month

Total Debt payments = $361

Debt payments-to-income ratio with the college loan

= $361/$1,561 = 23%

Carl:

House payment = $1,640

Car payment = $482

Total payments = $2,122

Take-home pay = $3,250

Percentage spent on home and car = 65.3% ($2,122/$3,250 * 100)

3. My monthly net income = $2,850

Monthly debt payments = $1,140

Debt payment to income ratio

= $1,140/$2,850 * 100

= 0.4

= 40%

b) indirect manufacturing cost $130,000

2 a) the manufacturing department cost will be of $350,000

  b) zero as direct material, labor and overhead can be determinated.

3) a) $40,000

  b) $50,000 advertizement.

4) No as we can set the object cost to determinate the direct and indirect cost of the adminsitrative expenses.

Explanation:

a) The direct manufacturing cost will be the variable manufacturing cost linked to the unit cost:

Materials $7 + Labor $4 = $11 per unit

20,000 units x $11.00 = $ 220,000

b) indirect manufacturing cost will be the overhead.

20,000 x ($1.5 + $5) = 130,000

2)

a) Materials, labor and overhead.

which totals for 350,000

2 b) all the manufacturing cost are traceable so zero.

3)

fixed selling

20,000 x 3.5 = 70,000

less 50,000 advertizement = 20,000

variable sales:

commisions $1 x 20,000 + 20,000 = 40,000 direct cost (sales persons)

b) the indirect cost will be the advertizement as cannot be linked directly to the sales person cost.
