1. Melissa and Karen are driving to school together. Melissa’s brand new
truck that is worth $20,000 stops working due to the air being cold and
Melissa pulls over to the side of the road. In desperation Melissa says: “I
hate this truck. I would sell it for $5.00!” Karen says, I accept, and
throws the five dollars on Melissa’s lap.
Is there a contract?
a) YES because there is an offer and an acceptance.
b) YES because there is an offer and acceptance and it doesn’t matter about the
value of the vehicle.
c) YES because the Courts don’t look at value.
d) NO because Melissa didn’t likely have the true intent to make the offer under
the circumstances. Spring 2020 Business Law Assignment
