Question

Louis agreed to provide all the apples that Cindy's Cider Mill will need at $3 per bushel unless weather conditions require additional labor to be hired. The contract further provides that in the case of bad weather requiring additional workers the rate would be $3.50 per bushel. As a result of an early freeze warning, Louis learns he will have to hire 100 additional workers and will lose thousands of dollars even at the $3.50 per bushel rate. Louis now wants to get out of his contract. Can he

Answer 1

Answer: No, the parties expected the hardship and provided for it in their contract

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, Louis cannot get out of the contract. This is because the parties expected the hardship and provided for it in their contract.

This can be deduced when rather than paying $3 per bushel, in case of bad weather requiring additional workers, the rate would be $3.50 per bushel and it was agreed.

Therefore, Louis can't get out of the contract.
