Attendence WHO DARES TO MISS MY WONDERFUL SPEECH?!? Q of the day, What's your favorite Holiday?
Changing Classes No more than 40 students in a class. All of them are at except the last 2 on Friday. This means no more changing for holidays or I can get in trouble. Sorry!

Contract What is a Contract? An Agreement enforceable by a court. A contract can be written or spoken (Express), maybe even implied (no one said anything). People Involved: Offeror/Seller Offeree (Acceptor)/Buyer
What is required for a Contract? Agreement! The two people have to agree, not force allowed. This requires: Offer + Acceptance + Mutual Assent (both agree) Consideration Both parties have to give something up.There needs to be a loss on both sides, otherwise it is unequal. Capacity For example, not a baby or really, really drunk. Legality You cannot agree to sell Drugs or A Car You Don't Own.
Agreement Offer = Parties + Product/Service + $$ + Time of Completion How to make an offer (very important!) The offeror (seller) has to INTEND now to sell the item. Acceptance The Offeree (Buyer) has to INTEND now to buy the item ***THE OFFER = ACCEPTANCE
Rejection What if I say no? - The contract never happens What if I change the offer? - I'll give you 15RMB instead of 20RMB. Is there a Contract?
Counteroffer & Revocation If the Offeror Changes it before there is an agreement, then there is a new offer. = REVOCATION If the Offeree changes it, then the become the offeror. = COUNTEROFFER
Unilateral Contract Instead of asking for a good, I ask for a service or that you do something. "Cut my hair and I'll give you 50 dollars). All you have to do is cut my hair, even without words, to get the money.
Bilateral Contract You agree to give me something in exchange for something. We Both agree.
Quasi-Contract There is no spoken agreement. BUT! one person does something repeatedly and is not told to stop. It is reasonable that they expected to be paid.
Problems FAIRNESS!
Sample Contract Okay, Teams of 2 & 4 Pair off into groups of 2 Teams of 3 & 5 Pair off into groups of 2 & 3
