Question 2

Franklin, a hobby-shop supplier, and Gordon, a hobby-shop owner, entered into a contract that provided that Franklin would sell Gordon fifty World War II battleship models at Franklin's cost of 2.95 each, plus a reasonable profit. Gordon brought suit to enforce the contract against Franklin, who refused to deliver the models. Franklin claimed that there was no contract because of indefiniteness. Is Franklin correct?

Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Yes. The price of the models is indefinite. There is no objective measure of reasonable profit. Thus, the intent of the parties regarding price cannot be ascertained. The court will have to conclude that there is no valid and enforceable contract, and Gordon's action will be dismissed.
