Good Essays

Introduction This paper is about presenting all the existing proposals regarding supplying Gloria Smithson’s company with necessary widgets. Although supplying widgets from domestic suppliers is advised in most of the cases for a number of reasons, we’ll examine here a couple of other options that may be more appropriate for Mrs. Smithson’s case. In particular we are going to examine a proposal coming from the same state Gloria Smithson’s business is located along with two more proposals from overseas. Each proposal is accompanied with strong features as well as some drawbacks. In an effort to select the best option, we are going to analyze those features and give the best possible advice for our client. Evaluating Proposals At first, we will examine if the proposals we have in our hands constitute an offer. A contract needs four elements in order to be considered enforceable (Cheeseman, 2015, p.172): • Agreement: There must be an offer coming from the offeror and an acceptance of this offer by the offeree. Mutual consent is required. • Consideration: There must be something of value that will be promised to be given. This can be property, money, jewelry etc. • Contractual capacity: Contractual capacity is required for parties entering a contract. For instance, minors can’t normally enter a contract. • Lawful object. The object of contract must not be illegal, immoral, against common good etc. There are some requirements for an offer to be considered as valid
