John received a promotion at work and felt new clothes would be necessary in the new position. John went to a local store and charged three ties on his charge account at a cost of $60 each. Bill, a friend of John's, saw a sidewalk vendor selling ties at a cost of three for $10 and bought three at that price. The friends compared purchases that night and found that they had purchased identical ties. John became enraged and said that he would not pay the charge-account bill because the ties were clearly not worth $60 each. Bill indicated that he would testify on John's behalf if litigation ensued. What would be the probable outcome of the lawsuit

Answer:

John will lose the lawsuit

Step-by-step explanation:

Businesses have a right to set the price of their products, and when the customers considers the price and agrees with it the deal is sealed.

In the given scenario John made the purchase at $60 per tie and he was satisfied with the sale at point of purchase.

He only became enraged when Bill told him he bought his identical ties at $10.

John will lose a lawsuit of he fails to pay the charge-account bill because he willingly agreed to the $60 per tie price.
