Question

Mary agrees to prepare Georgia's taxes for $150 plus costs. Georgia decides that she wants extra help on other business matters, and calls Mary to discuss the changes to their contract. Mary says the extra professional services will increase the total cost to $250 and Georgia agrees to the new price. When Mary finishes all of the work, Georgia is legally obligated to pay:

Answer 1

$250

Step-by-step explanation:

The first agreement between Mary and Georgia stated a $150 payment plus costs. But later Georgia decided to modify the agreement by including other services provided by Mary, and Mary accepted with a new price that Georgia accepted. The acceptance by both parties means that the modified agreement is supported by additional consideration.
