On May 1, 2018, ABCC Realty Inc. mailed a written offer to Mishaal for the sale of an office building. The offer included an express term that it would expire on June 30, 2018 if the acceptance was not delivered into the hands of the offeror by the expiration date. On June 30, 2018 at 8:00 a.m., Mishaal sent a written acceptance to ABCC via Mishaal's personal messenger. However, the messenger was not able to deliver the acceptance until July 1, 2018. On July 2, 2018, ABCC contacted Mishaal, informing him that the acceptance had been delivered one day late. As a result, ABCC refused to honor the acceptance. Which of the following is the most correct statement?

Select one:

a.There is no contract between ABCC and Mishaal. However, if Mishaal would have mailed the acceptance on June 30, 2016, a contract would have been created.

b.There is a contract between ABCC and Mishaal. The moment that Mishaal gave the acceptance to the messenger, a contract was formed because acceptances are valid immediately upon dispatch.

c.There is a contract between ABCC and Mishaal. The fact that the acceptance arrived only one day late is of no significance.

d.There is no contract between ABCC and Mishaal.
