Answer 1

41. D. None of these are correct.

A contract is valid if it has at least 2 parties making an agreement to do or not to do something for a consideration

Here only one party is signing the contract with no trace of the other party,and that too without consideration.

which eventually is not enforceable by law.

42. A. Assignee. An assignee is a person to whom rights or liabilities are transferred or a person who is appointed to act for another. in this case Bethany is appointed to act for Harris.

55. B. Agreement. Discharge of a contract by agreement is when both the parties decide to cancel the contract by mutual understanding irrespective of the terms and conditions of the contract are fulfilled or not.

67. C. Because a merchant under UCC is a person having expertise in the goods which he/she is trading. A gun dealer has sufficient knowledge about arms and ammunition which he uses to trade guns and rifle in his shop. So he is a trader under UCC.
