Fundamentals of Business Law

A contract is one of the fundamentals of business law. A contract is a legal document that binds two parties involved in a transaction. The contractual agreements between individuals construct a legal obligation that they must fulfill. According to Simchi-Levi (2021), sources of a contract include Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and the common law.All contracts, including written and verbal, are enforceable. When one fails to fulfill part of the obligation, it is considered a breach of contract. For instance, I recently ordered Echo Dot from Amazon, but it was never delivered. I believe the e-commerce company breached our contractual agreement.

I entered into a bilateral contract with Amazon by ordering Echo Dot. The conditions of the transaction meet all the requirements of a valid contract. For instance, a valid contract must have an offer and acceptance. In this case, I called Amazon's sales representative and offered to buy Echo Dot. I also made a consideration by promising to pay $50 for the product upon delivery. The sales representative gladly accepted my offer and promised to deliver the item within 24 hours.In that case, we had a bilateral contract because I made an offer, and the sales representative accepted it on behalf of Amazon. As the company's employee, the sales representative had a contractual capacity to enter into the agreement. Consequently, buying items through online platforms such as Amazon is legal; therefore, the contract meets the legality requirement. The contract also adheres to the UCC rule that all sales above $500 must have a written agreement.

However, the company breached the contract by failing to deliver the Echo Dot product within the specified time.Amazon did not issue any notification to show termination of the contract. The law requires that the party terminate the contract by revocation, counteroffer, or rejection. In this case, Amazon did not reject, revoke, or offer another product. The sales representative made me believe that we had a serious business transaction. For instance, the case between Lucy v. Zehmer (1954) shows that the undisclosed intention of the party is immaterial is a contract (LexisNexis, 2021). Similarly, Amazon cannot claim to have terminated the contract through operational law because the time required to deliver the item will be specified in the oral agreement. The court can remedy this case by ordering a specific performance in the form of replevin. Amazon should honor its obligation by delivering Echo Dot. This will allow me to enjoy missed entertainment.
