In 1998-99 John Leonard watched a Pepsi commercial and thought he had an opportunity to purchase a Harrier Jet (military aircraft) worth approximately $23M for the cash equivalent of $700K. He collected enough money, added the jet to the bottom of the order form in the Pepsi catalog and sent it in to Pepsi. When they refused to produce the jet and returned his money, he filed a lawsuit for breach of contract. He claimed that the Pepsi Commercial was a valid offer to make and contact and he accepted that offer by sending in the money. After watching the video presentation of Pepsi's Harrier Jet Commercial, (Links to an external site.) discuss the following questions completely using contract law principles. 1. How does the objective theory of contracts apply to this case? (The objective theory is explained on pages 189-190 of your textbook. This rule states that unless a third party looking at the situation objectively thinks that both the offeror and offeree want to enter into a contract, no contract can be created. Offers or statements made in jest , anger or undue excitement do not include the necessary intent to be valid offers. Did Pepsi intend to make an offer in this case?) 2. How does the "advertisement as a special offer" rule apply to this case? (This rule is found on page 204 of the textbook. It says that a commercial or advertisement for the sale of goods - like the Harrier Jet - is not offers to make a contract, even if a specific price for the good is listed by the seller.) 3. The court concluded that no contract existed between John Leonard and Pepsi? Do you agree? Beside to support whatever position you take using contract law principles. For another perspective on this case, you may want to watch this video from things You Might Not Know.

In the 1960s few Canadians travelled abroad on holiday but with the growth of air travel thousands were soon travelling to the tropical destinations, specially in the Carribean. Package deals revolutionized the travel industry, and by the 1970s in Europe, Spain was one of the favourite destinations. The 1990s saw a big change in travel as the internet expanded and low cost carriers, such Ryan Air offered flights destinations for less than their competitors and many customers had the opportunity to travel when they wanted..

In 2019, a dam built to hold waste from a nearby iron ore mine owned by the Vale Mining Company (Vale) in Brumadinho, Brazil, collapsed, killing 270 people. The tsunami of mud was so powerful that it overturned houses, mangled trucks, and ripped off the scalps of some of the people buried under the toxic mix of water and mining waste. It also caused vast environmental damage. After prosecutors investigating the disaster found evidence that safety reports were fabricated, they charged 16 officials of Vale, including Vale's chief executive, Fabio Schvartsman, with homicide. Five people at TUV SUD, the German auditing company that certified the minewaste dam as safe months before it gave way, were also charged with homicide. A report issued by an independent commission hired by Vale attested that Vale executives knew about the safety risks at the dam for over a decade and had received multiple warnings, especially in 2015 after a similar dam partly owned by Vale burst, leaving 19 dead. Investigators characterized the relationship between Vale and TUV SUD as one of "pressure, collusion, compensation, and a conflict of interests." Makoto Namba, a senior engineering inspector at TUV SUD, found evidence indicating potentially risky conditions at the dam, saying, "Everything suggests (the dam) won't pass a key safety test." Namba later told police that he felt pressured by a Vale official to sign a safety certificate and worried that failing to sign the certificate would jeopardize his career. Without the signed certificate, Vale would have had to halt its adjacent mining operations, which were estimated to produce more than $1 million worth of iron ore a day. Hundreds of people could have lost their jobs, and the report would have triggered a mass evacuation of local communities. TUV SUD certified the dam's safety six months before the collapse and again three months later, after another auditing and certification company, fired by Vale, had warned that the dam was structurally unsound. TUV SUD employees expressed worry about losing contracts with Vale, its major client, if their reports did not verify the dam's safety. Olavo Coelho, a 63-year-old long-time Vale employee, told reporters he worried about the safety of a dam and pointed out cracks, leaks, and dark stains in the structure to Vale engineers. He urged Vale executives to evacuate the suite. "He was ignored," said Coelho's daughter. Wilson Jose Ferreira, a 55-year-old machine operator, said he tried to warn his bosses about the growing number of leaks in the dam. "They paid little attention to us, they didn't believe what we were saying." Several other mine workers warned their bosses at Vale that the dam was about to collapse. Supervisors reportedly brushed aside these concerns, citing fears about extra expenditures that could cost the company more than $1 , 000 to fix the foundation. A Vale spokesperson said the company allowed employees to file anonymous complaints but did not receive m.

Imagine a country that has been stable for several decades. Some citizens begin protesting the taxes they pay to the government. Government responds by lowering taxes--but with less revenue, they also cut services. People who like those services begin to protest about their declining quality of life. A neighboring country invades and the government tries to get more citizens to join the military to fight a defensive war, but most people refuse because they feel like their government has not supported them enough to justify the sacrifice. The invading country removes the government and takes over the territory. This story of the end of a once-stable country is an example of... Group of answer choices ...strategic blunders on the part of military leaders. ...ignorance among citizens of the importance of loyalty to the state. ...breaking the social contract between citizens and the state. ...laziness on the part of citizens dependent on the state..
