Question

Alex, a 25-year-old banker, joined his friends at a "pub-hopping" trip that had participants visiting six bars in a two hour span of time. Between the fifth and final pub stop, a highly intoxicated Alex stopped to use the bathroom at a local luxury car dealer, who was holding a special evening sales event. Seeing all the cars and thinking he was signing up for training as a race car driver, Alex mistakenly signed a contract to purchase the $188,425 emerald-green Ferrari displayed in the showroom. The next day, a sober Alex found the contract paperwork at the foot of his bed, and with no memory of the previous evening, quickly headed to the dealership. As he began to explain to the sales manager Janine about the drunken purchase mistake, he changed his mind, and decided to keep the car. Manager Janine, however, took the contract copy from Alex and ripped it up, saying "You're not responsible enough to own this car." Does Alex keep the Ferrari?a. No, because the original contract was void.b. Yes, because Janine can't void the contract.b.No, because Janine can void the contract.

Answer 1

B). Yes, because Janine can't void the contract.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given description, 'yes, Alexa keeps the ferrari because Janine is unable to avoid the contract' which has already been signed. Therefore, despite ripping up the copy of the contract Janine would not be able to avoid its obligations and prevent Alex from owning that car due to his ignorant and irresponsible behavior. After the contract being signed, both the parties are bound to follow the obligations as mentioned in the contract. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
