...Week 5 Final Paper Betty Poppins Bus 311 Instructor Brandy Krectzburg 7/01/13 Business Contracts: Protocol, Laws & Ethicality There are various kinds of contracts which arise within our business world today; contracts are an essential component to business livelihood. Although a contract is an agreement, not all agreements are valid contractual obligations. In order for any contract to be an official and legally binding agreement, there are essential requirements which must first be fulfilled. Because contracts are vital to the organization and its success, it is important that the organization has an inclusive understanding of the inner workings of business contract and law and sustaining ethicality within these agreements; this will help ensure that each and every business transaction is a smooth and successful endeavor from beginning to end. What is a contract, and what makes it valid? According to Essentials of Business Law, by Susan Rogers (2012), a contract is described as being “a legally enforceable agreement between two or more people.” Therefore, a contract emerges from the voluntary consent of two or more people with mutual accordance to enter into this agreement. Contracts are helpful to business, as these agreements are binding to both parties involved. In order for a contract to be a valid and binding agreement there are five fundamental yet essential elements that must be present, and these are: 1. The Offer, 2. The Acceptance, 3. Consideration...

...gain sufficient knowledge about them. The first and the most important thing we need to know is: What is a contract? A contract is an agreement which is enforceable by the court of law. For a legal contract there has to be an offer and its acceptance. “Acceptance occurs when the party answering the offer agrees to the offer by way of a statement or an act. Acceptance must be unequivocal and communicated to the offer or the law will not deem a person to have accepted an offer merely because they have not expressly rejected it. Some modifications to the rules of offer and acceptance have been made to protect consumers by sections 18 and 41 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) schedule 2 Australian Consumer Law (“ACL”) for example, invitations or offers to purchase cannot be misleading or deceptive.[2] Thus acceptance is a very important concept of contracts. Generally a valid contract has acceptance. The different types of contracts are: Formal Contracts and Simple Contracts. “A simple contract can be totally written, partly written and partly “oral” (verbal), or totally oral.”[2] But in this case a standard form of contract prevails between the two parties. A standard form of a contract is defined as: A standard form contract (sometimes referred to as an adhesion or boilerplate contract) is a contract between two parties, where the terms and conditions of the contract are set by one of the parties, and the other party has little or no ability to negotiate more...

...CONTRACT REVIEW ASSIGNMENT Instructor: Barb Eccles Business Law 3051-FA Matthias Majerczyk Due Date: Tuesday, November-27-2012 BigCo Agreement for Exchange of Confidential Information 2) Most people who have positions in a corporation are employees under the legal entity. So, therefore Really Smart Guy is the Vice-President and an employee of BigCo Limited. BigCo can use confidential draft patent application and some confidential information to compete with III. This is according to paragraph 4, “BigCo can use III’s ideas, concepts, know-how and techniques for its own business activities to compete with III, only if III’s Information is retained in the memories of BigCo’s employees who have had access to the Information under the BigCo Confidentiality Agreement.” BigCo was also given a draft business plan. BigCo cannot use the business plan to compete with III according to paragraph 4, “nothing gives the BigCo the right to disclose, publish or disseminate the business plans of III” 3) BigCo can terminate its agreement with III by providing a one month’s written notice BigCo. III’s and BigCo’s obligations for disclosing information will extend beyond the termination and will remain in effect until fulfilled. The Survival clause is really weird and it conflicts with the Confidentiality Period on paragraph 3. How can you say that it will extend for two years following the initial date of disclosure, then the survival clause states that any terms of the agreement will extend...

...scenario. Your report should be no longer than 3,000 words. 1 Differences Between Liability in Tort and Contractual Liability Contractual liability concentrates on what is in a contract and the obligations between the two or more parties of the contract. Both parties in contractual liability contracts are controlled by it and the terms stated in the contract cannot be broken. The terms of a contract must be fulfilled by both of the parties; otherwise consequences will follow if one party breaks the terms. Contractual liability contains conducting agreement and liability between businessperson and merchant. Tort law is used in situations where a person has done harm to another person. Liability varies significantly in tort law and contractual law in terms of issues of content. Contractual liability is based on agreement but tort law’s liability is not based on agreement. Also the way court provides compensations and how it deals with these two reflects on the difference between them. Contractual liability therefore concentrates on the contract and liability issues whereas tort of liability concentrates on what kind of harm or loss has the other party caused to the innocent party. In contractual liability both parties are aware and know well what they have agreed to when signing a contract. Usually only mistake or misunderstanding leads to breaking contractual liability. In tort of...

...rather than imprisonment. This study focuses on figuring out the harmonies and dissimilarities of liability in tort and contractual liability along with elaborating the essence of liability in negligence and vicarious liability with the aim at depicting their applications in business contexts and daily situations. Besides, the study pursues litigations and statutes in the United Kingdom, the United State and Vietnam from the late seventeenth century until now. PART 1 THE PRINCIPLES OF LIABILITY IN NEGLIGENCE IN BUSINESS CONTEXTS 3.1 Contrast between liability in tort and contractual liability 3.1.1 The similarities and differences between liability in tort and contractual liability A tort is civil wrong for which precedents and legislative enactments imposes legal liability as personal injury, psychiatric harm, damage to property and economic loss in negligence, undermining reputations in defamation or the interference with the enjoyment of land in nuisance.(Allison, 1996) Contract law imposes obligations which the party has voluntarily agreed to assume. Tort should recompense for harm suffered rather than wrongdoer’s punishment that can be convicted by criminal law.(Baer, 1997) By contrast, contract law directs at forcing keeping promises. Besides, contractual liabilities are owed by contracting parties but tort liabilities are owed to groups of people.(Oldham, 2004) This can be a liability to the public at large, or to another individual because of the nature of the relationship...

...For a contract to be valid it must have the following characteristics: 1. Offer and acceptance A contract is formed when an offer by one party is accepted by the other party. An offer must be distinguished from mere willingness to deal or negotiate. For example, X offers to make and sell to Y calendars featuring Australian paintings. Before any agreement is reached on size, quality, style or price, Y decides not to continue. At this stage, there is no legally binding contract between X and Y because there is no definite offer for Y to accept until the essential terms of the bargain have been decided. An offer need not be made to a specific person. It may be made to a person, a class of people, or to the whole world. An offer is a definite promise to be bound, provided the terms of the offer are accepted. This means that there must be acceptance of precisely what has been offered. For example, a used car dealer offers to sell B a Holden panel van for $1,000, without a roadworthy certificate. If B decides to buy the Holden panel van, but insists on a roadworthy certificate being provided, then B is not accepting the used car dealer's offer. Rather, B is making a counter offer. It is then up to the used car dealer to accept or reject the counter offer. A person can withdraw the offer that has been proposed before that offer is accepted. For withdrawal to be effective, the person who has proposed the offer must communicate to the other party that the offer has been withdrawn....

It is simply defined as an intention to enter a legally binding agreement or contract. Without the intention, the contract may only become a mere promise because there is no legal binding between the contracting parties and the contract can be assumed as not legal. It is not sufficient for only one party to have the intention but not the other as the presence of mutual understandings and intentions between the contracting parties are needed to legally binding a contract. However, there is no intention to create legal relations when it comes to cases that involve with social, domestic and family arrangements.
