Jacobson Wholesale Company and Kutner, the owner of a retail men's store, signed a written contract under which Jacobson was to sell 300 boxes of hosiery to Kutner at $5 per box. Jacobson sent the hosiery, and Kutner paid the $1,500 . Jacobson sued Kutner for an additional $900 and at the trial offered evidence that shortly before signing the contract, Kutner had orally agreed to pay an
additional $3 per box. The court held the evidence inadmissible. The principle that best justifies the legal decision in this case is that
a. all contracts must be in writing to be enforceable.
b. written contracts may not be modified at the will of the parties.
c. generally, evidence of a prior oral agreement contradicting a written contract is inadmissible.
d. a contract of guaranty must be in writing to be enforceable.
