Answer:
Jones is liable to pay.
He is liable to pay to the tune of $1000. This may be negotiated however if it is not fair.
Explanation:
See the following points
- The question above is an example of Implied At-law contracts. (We will get to the definition of this in a bit).
- A contract is a legally binding agreement that recognises and governs the rights and duties of the parties to the agreement. A contract is legally enforceable because it meets the requirements and approval of<u> the Law</u>. From the above definition it is clear that two people may actually be engaging in a contract without knowing it.
- The law defines that a contract is.
- Contracts may be Express or Implied.
- Express contracts are simply contracts that are stated expressly, or openly, in either writing or orally, at the time of contract formation.
- Implied contracts are created when two or more parties have no written contract.
- There are two types of implied contracts:
- Implied In-Fact Contracts: these are contracts which create an obligation between the parties based on the facts of the situation. For example, assume your neighbor hires you to wash his car every Friday for the entire holidays. You wash your neighbor’s car for the first four weekends of the holidays and get paid on Friday morning each time. The fifth Friday you wash the car and when you arrive at your neighbor’s house for your pay, your neighbor refuses to pay you. The law will infer that there is a contract between you and your neighbor, even though you never put anything in writing. This is an implied in-fact contract.
2. The other type of Implied contract is that which is Implied At-Law
In the case between Jones and Smith, the law imposes a duty to perform a contract, and will enforce such a contract even against a person’s will, where the situation is such that without this legal intervention, one party would be <u>unfairly enriched</u> or advantaged by another party’s action.
- In the question above, Smith is a CPA. He is qualified in every respect to carry out Professional Tax services. His services may be relied upon with a great degree of confidence.
- If Jones had not filed those tax returns, he probably would have lost monies that should have accrued to him from the government.
This type of agreement is also considered a quasi-contract. A quasi-contract occurs where the law imposes an obligation upon the parties where in fact the parties did not intend to enter into a contract and made no promise to perform.
However, because one party would be unjustly enriched by another party’s action, the beneficiary of those actions must make restitution or pay fair value for the services provided, even though there was never any intention to enter into an agreement.

Answer:
1. 10s
2. Slower than normal
Explanation:
1. To calculate the normal time, we first take the average of Charlene's observed times:
Average of Charlene's observed time =
= 8.5s
Her normal time is therefore:
=
= 10s
2. Since no of Charlene's observed time is higher than normal time of 10s, we can therefore conclude that her work perfomance should be rated as slower than normal.
Answer:
This is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has decreaseddecreased because belowbelow 0.10 because the proportion of sample, is nothing very close to 0.10.
Explanation:
n = 1100
p = 0.10
Using the formula np(1-p), we will have
= 1100(0.10)*(1 - 0.10)
= 1100*0.10*0.90
= 99
99 ≥ 10
This satisfies normal distribution condition. That is, proportion of sample are normally distributed.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
<em>The correct answer would be changes in consumer input.</em>
The supply of a good can be influenced by changes in the price of inputs for that goods, changes in the price of substitute goods, as well as changes in technology that positively or negatively affect the production of such goods.
What will not affect the supply of any good is changes to consumer's input. An input generally referred to a substance that is required to produce an output. Unless the consumer of a good is also the producer of that good, a consumer's input will not impact the supply of a product.
The correct option is C.
