Suppose that Jack and Sophia and Hal enter into an agreement for the sale of the business without the non-competition agreement. Jack states that he would probably sign the non-competition agreement if they included an extra $100,000. A month later, Hal and Sophia bring Jack $100,000. What is the result?A. Jack cannot change his mind, since he stated that he would probably accept $100,000 additional for the non-competition agreement.
B. If Jack does not accept the $100,000, he may not sell the frozen food, but only for a reasonable amount of time.
C. If Jack does not accept the $100,000, there is a valid contract for the sale of the business, without a non-competition clause.
D. If Jack does not accept the $100,000, there is no valid contract for the sale of the business or for the non-competition agreement.

Two firms, a and b, each currently emit 100 tons of chemicals into the air. the government has decided to reduce the pollution and from now on will require a pollution permit for each ton of pollution emitted into the air. the government gives each firm 40 pollution permits, which it can either use or sell to the other firm. it costs firm a $200 for each ton of pollution that it eliminates before it is emitted into the air, and it costs firm b $100 for each ton of pollution that it eliminates before it is emitted into the air. after the two firms buy or sell pollution permits from each other, we would expect that firm a will emit a. 100 fewer tons of pollution into the air, and firm b will emit 20 fewer tons of pollution into the air. b. 20 more tons of pollution into the air, and firm b will emit 100 fewer tons of pollution into the air. c. 50 fewer tons of pollution into the air, and firm b will emit 50 fewer tons of pollution into the air. d. 20 fewer tons of pollution into the air, and firm b will emit 100 fewer tons of pollution into the air.
