Question #: 45
Topic #: 1
John has signed a document with Larry that says that he will give Larry his car. Both John and Larry are over the age of 18 and are of sound mind. Larry accepts this offer and signs the document. Is this a contract?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

No - There is no consideration. For a document to be considered a contract there must be consideration. This means something of value must be exchanged. In this example John gives Larry something but Larry doesn't give John anything. Therefore there is no consideration and this is not a contract. See p.12
