Anne contracted to sell one hundred cans of yellow tennis balls to Chris, with a delivery to be made by June 15.
a. On June 8, Anne delivered one hundred cans of white tennis balls, which were rejected by Chris. What course of action would you recommend for Anne, and why?
b. Assume Ann had delivered the one hundred cans of white balls on June 15; these were rejected by Chris. Under what circumstances might Anne be allowed additional time to perform the contract?
c. If the contract did not specify delivery, when must Anne deliver the tennis balls?
d. When Anne delivers the tennis balls, does Chris have a right to inspect them? If Chris accepts the white tennis balls, may the acceptance be revoked?
e. Assume Chris decided she could use twenty-five cans of the white balls. Could Chris accept twenty-five cans and reject the rest?
f. Suppose Anne delivered white tennis balls because a fire at her warehouse destroyed her entire stock of yellow balls. Does the fire discharge Anne’s contractual duties?
g. If Chris rejected the white tennis balls and Anne refused to deliver yellow ones, may Chris recover damages? If so, how would they be calculated?
