Case Study #1

Normally the advertisements are considered as business promotions and invitations to attract
customers and are not included in the category of legalized binding offers. The discount offers
are one of the major promotional activities in almost all retails business organizations. But here
in Acme supastore, there will be an offer based on a condition as, if any one buy a television
from Acem Acme supastore and give a notice telling that the same product is available on a
cheaper rate within the five miles on the same day, the supastore will refund the money twice
within the five days of the purchase. But this is just an advertisement of supastore to get more
business. The shop is not making any contract while selling the television related to this offer.
A contract is a legal agreement which identifies and governs the responsibilities, rights
and duties of the person or parties who involved in the agreement or contract.
A contract needs the following requirements such as:-
1. Need an offer
2. Need an acceptance
3. Need an intention to make a legal relation
But here this offer is an advertisement for a short period. An offer can be defined as, it’s a
proposal with a set of terms and conditions with the intention in which both the parties will be
bond together contractually after the acceptance of terms and conditions. At the same time an
offer in a shop is an advertisement. The advertisements might be the invitation to visit a shop or
place. If an advertisement become offer, there will be certain issues which may related to
multiple acceptances and limited stock. Here instead of advertisement the term used is an “offer”
which means a much stronger acceptance to be bound. Acme is would not be needed to hold the
unlimited stock. If many accepted the offer, the company would need to make refunds of
multiple prices and this would be a small amount.
We also can see a fault in Belinda’s argument. According to the offer published my
Acme, a customer who purchase the TV has to report the evidence of lower price in that same
day itself and collected the discount within 5 days. But Belinda purchases the product on
Monday 3rd December and reported the lower price in a nearby shop on 8 th December. So the
shop authority can point out this to deny the offer.
Personally speaking, I like to comment that, Belinda has to submit a request to the
company management about the denial of the offer. Most probably they will come for a
discussion to solve the matter mutually. In this way, Belinda can sort this issue in same what
simple manner.
Case Study#2
This case study also deals with the denial of an offer after the fulfillment of the duty. The
company management offered double salary to the security guard to work alone, during the
absence of the other guard for one week time. But after fulfilling the duty, the company denied to
give double salary. This happened due to the absence of a planned contract in between the
company management and the security guard.
I like to suggest that, the security staff has to make a contract with the company
management in detail about how two people has to adjust work during the absence of one person.
A contract is a legal agreement which identifies and governs the responsibilities, rights and
duties of the person or parties who involved in the agreement or contract.
A contract needs the following requirements such as:-
1. Need an offer ( In this case of security guard, the offer will be about their working hours,
salary and other benefits etc. Additionally the management has to provide the details about the
work schedule and the double salary during the absence of one security. This will give a surety to
the employee to work in a proper way)
2. Need an acceptance ( The acceptance form the employee side after reading the offer)
3. Need an intention to make a legal relation (official legalizing process)

The importance of a contract:-


The contracts are very important to every organization in between the employee and
employer. This is an assurance from the employer side about the smooth run of the work of an
employee. If any offer denied by the employer, the employee can approach the court for breach
of contract.

In this case, if the security staff made a contract with the management regarding the work
schedule and payment during the absence of an employee, they can approach the court due to
breach of court. But here in the case study, no such contracts are made in between them and the
management orally made an extra offer of double salary during the absence of one security.
Summary:
The contract is a legal document and can be needed to any agreement in between two
parties. This is an assurance in between two parties. If any obligations occurs in between them,
they can easily cancel the contract mutually. If any breach happened the parties can go legally to
the court to cover up the breach.
