Answer: O Tim must pay because the agreement to complete the tax returns earlier than originally agreed is additional consideration supporting the modification of the contract.

Explanation:

When Tim agreed to Betty's stipulation that for her to finish the returns earlier, he would have to pay an extra $250, he in effect agreed to the modification of the contract.

Modified Contracts are also enforceable by law so Tim has to pay the $250. There was no proof that Betty acted wrongfully as she had to change her schedule and needed to be compensated for the inconvenience. Also even if the modification was not in writing, it is a generally accepted rule that for contracts to be modified orally, the amount must not exceed $500 which it did not.

Tim is very much liable to pay.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.

Explanation:

To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:

= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing

= $87 - $62 - $26

= -$1

Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".

Why is the savings account better than a checking’s account for saving money?
Lisa [10]

Because it pays a higher rate of interest.

A savings account is better than a checking account for saving money because they normally pay a higher interest rate than a checking account. Quite often, a checking account will not pay any interest at all.
