On August 1, Ernie wrote to Elsie offering to sell Elsie his car for $7,600, and he promised to hold the offer open for ten days. On August 4 Ernie changed his mind; he sent Elsie a letter revoking the offer. On August 5 Elsie e-mailed Ernie, accepting the offer. Ernie’s letter of revocation arrived on August 6. Is there a contract? Explain.

Yes, the contract is still valid.

Explanation:

Let us first clarify some terms first.

A contract is referred to as a legally binding agreement that is recognized, known and governs the rights and duties of the parties involved in an agreement. A contract is legally enforceable because it meets the features and approval of the law. An agreement basically involves the exchange of goods, transactions, services, money, or promises. In the case of breach of contract, the law awards the injured party access to legal remedies which include damages and cancellation.

Letter of revocation is an act by which a person having authority, calls back or in other words annuls a power, gift, or benefit, which had been bestowed upon another.

Yes, the contract still holds. This is due to the reason that the letter had a date mentioned on it which is August 4, a day before the contract was accepted even though the revocation letter arrived late.

Therefore, as regards to the date on the letter, the contract is still valid.
