10. Scott takes $10,000 from his bank account to set up a small donut-shop business. He meets with an attorney, and finds out he can set up a sole proprietorship for under $100, but a corporation would cost over $500 ($175 to the state, about $400 to the attorney). He decides on a sole proprietorship. He signs a one-year lease, and starts his business. After six months of operations, he closes the business because of much-lower-than-expected sales. After using the $10,000 from Scott, the business has unpaid expenses of:

$6,000 remaining rent due on the business lease thru end of the lease

$5,000 in wages to employees

$3,000 in payroll taxes

$35,000 in medical bills for a customer injured when a donut rack falls over on the customer, breaking several bones in the customers legs, and leaving the customer unable to work for several months.

Scotts personal liability for these unpaid expenses is:

a. limited to the $10,000 already invested

b. limited to the $10,000 already invested, plus the wages and taxes owed

c. complete liability for all debts

d. no liability at all

17. A minor has entered into a signed, written agreement with an adult for the purchase of a car, for $5,000. The minor has paid the adult $1,000 as a partial payment, and has had the car for about one week. Now, the minor wants to cancel the contract. The adult refuses to cancel the contract, because he wants the full $5,000, and he no longer wants the car. The minor is able to walk to her high school, and to her part-time job, and does not need the car. If this goes to court, the judge should rule that the minor: A) is bound by the agreement, because it is written and signed. B) is bound by the agreement, because it is for more than $500. C) can declare the contract void, but cannot get back her $1,000 partial payment. D) can declare the contract void, and will be able to get back her $1,000 partial payment.
