Mr. Grove is a business man. He has lots of contracts that he deals with in his life. Read each of the following scenarios. Decide which ones must be in writing because of the statute of frauds. Explain why each contract is covered by the statute of frauds or why it is not. These should be short answers, two or three sentences.

Mr. Grove needs a big new tractor (okay, maybe needs is strong word, but a new tractor!). It costs $6000.00. He likes it so much he agrees to buy two.
