Answer:

Enforceable

Step-by-step explanation:

Statute of frauds are legal requirements that a contract must have before it is considered to be enforceable.

Normally written contracts are required for transactions that are above $500, for sale of land, and transctions that last one year or longer.

The contract amount in the given scenario is (1000 pencils * $0.25) = $250

This amount falls below what is required for a written agreement. So an oral agreement can suffice in this case.

The contract is enforceable
