Answer 1

We know that an accord and satisfaction is a legal contract whereby two parties agree to discharge a tort claim, contract, or other liability for an amount based on terms that differ from the original amount of the contract or claim.

18). The correct option is (d).

She cannot settle the debt until after the company files a Complaint.

19). The correct option is (d).

Both (a & b) are correct.

UCC means uniform commercial code. Article 2 of the UCC deals with the sale of goods.

20). The correct option is (b).

A court will order Jefferson to pay the full price because Hamilton substantially performed the contract, there is no difference in price, and the cost of replacement would be too high.

The only difference is in colour, the other things as price , quality etc are same so court will conclude that Hamilton has performed the contract and asks Jefferson to pay the full price.

Hope you got the answer.

Kindly comment for further explanation.
