Cheap Motorcycle. Tony, a hateful, disgruntled business law professor, notices that Peter, a student who is past the age of majo

rity, has bought a new motorcycle. Peter has struggled through school, is in his last semester, and needs to pass business law in order to graduate. Tony tells Peter that he would like to see Peter pass, and in the next sentence, Tony says that he wants to buy the motorcycle for $100, a price far below the value of the motorcycle. Peter asks if Tony is serious about the price, and Tony replies, "I have the power here!" Tony proceeds to draw up a contract for the sale of the motorcycle for $100 with lots of fine print by which he can sue Peter and recover any maintenance costs for the next five years. Seeing that he is at an advantage, Tony also throws into the deal that Peter will mow Tony's one-acre yard for $5 all summer long. After Tony tells Peter to either take the contract or leave it, Tony reluctantly signs. Which of the following is an appropriate term for the contract drawn up by Tony?
A) AdhesionB) Implied-in-lawC) IllusoryD) In pari delictoE) Exculpatory

Answer:

C) Illusory

Explanation:

More than an illusory contract (which means an unreasonable and non-enforceable contract), this is an unconscionable contract that no court would enforce.

This contract is so one sided that it damages the other party. The duties in clued in this contact are not enforceable because no person should be forced to do all those things just because the other party has more bargaining power.

Out of the 5 possible options the illusory contract is the only possible choice. Illusory contracts are also non-enforceable since only one side provides real consideration.

A homeseller wants to net $75,000. The commission is 9%, the loan payoff is $450,000, and closing costs are $36,000. What must t
gregori [183]

Answer:

The home must sell for $616,500 to be able to settle all costs

Explanation:

The net to the formula can be used to ascertain the price of the property , the formula is given below:

Net amount=Sales price*(100%-commission rate)

The net to the seller in this case is the amount that seller would receive and be able to settle mortgage and closing costs and still be left with $75000

Net amount =$75000+$450000+$36000

                     =$561000

commission rate is 9%

$561000=sales price*(100-9%)

$561000=sales price*91%

sales price =$561000/91%

                  =616483.52

But to the nearest $100 is $616500

Baylor Bank believes the New Zealand dollar will appreciate over the next five days from $.48 to $.50. The following annual inte
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Its dollar profit from speculation over the five-day period will be <u>$208,035.93</u>.

Explanation:

This can be determined as follows:

Assuming Baylor Bank borrow $5,000,000

The borrowing will be converted to New Zealand dollar at the current exchange rate and we will have:

Conversion = $5,000,000 / 0.48 = NZ$10,416,667

The NZ$10,416,667 shall be invested at an annualized based on  New Zealand lending rate of 6.75% over five days. This will produce future value (FV) as follows:

FV of investment = Amount invested * (1 + NZ lending rate)^(5 years / 360 days) = NZ$10,416,667 * (1 + 6.75%)^(5 / 360) = NZ$10,426,121.44

Converting the NZ$10,426,121.44 to dollar at the new rate of $.50 as follows:

New conversion = NZ$10,426,121.44 * $.05 = $5,213,060.72

Amount to repay based on the US borrowing rate = Amount borrowed in USD * (1 + US borrowing rate)^(5 years / 360 days) = $5,000,000 * (1 + 7.5%)^(5 / 360) = $5,000,000 * 1.00100495826555 = $5,005,024.79

Profit = New conversion - Amount to repay = $5,213,060.72 - $5,005,024.79 = $208,035.93

Therefore, its dollar profit from speculation over the five-day period will be <u>$208,035.93</u>.
