Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

The inelastic demand means the demand of the product does not vary when there is much change in the price. Let us assume that if the price is increased by 20% so the demand decreased only by 1% so here we can said there is inelastic demand

Also due to increased in the supply, the demand does not increased that much. So if the price is decreased so the demand does not respond due to which the total revenue comes down

So as per the given situation, having the large quantity caught the revenue is decreased so here the demand should be considered inelastic

On May 1, Study and Burrow, two college professors, entered into and oral contract under which study agreed to sell his computer
nasty-shy [4]

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.
