received that letter on May 1. Also on April 30, Clark sent a letter to Morgan accepting the offer. Morgan received that letter of acceptance on May 1. Morgan refused to sell the business to Clark, claiming that no contract had been formed. Clark brought suit to enforce the contract against Morgan. Based on what you have learned in this chapter, decide the probable outcome of the case.


?Judgment would be for Clark. Per the mailbox rule, a valid contract was formed on April 30 when Clark mailed the letter of acceptance without being aware of Morgan's attempted revocation.
