question 63

Multiple Choice

[Softball Trophies] To recognize softball players on his team, Eduardo ordered from Troy 10 trophies showing a softball player swinging a bat. The trophies were to be delivered on May 1st for an award dinner to be held on May 20th. Troy was at first unable to obtain trophies showing a softball player swinging a bat, but by May 13th, he did locate some trophies with a softball player holding a bat. The difference did not substantially impair the value of the trophies, and thinking that the trophies would be acceptable, Troy delivered them on May 14th. Eduardo glanced at the trophies, paid for them with a check, and said nothing. On May 16th Eduardo looked at the trophies more closely and decided that he did not like them. Eduardo canceled payment on his check, and Troy sued him for payment.
-Troy's failure to cure the problem will most likely have which effect?

• A) In order to receive payment, Troy must provide correct trophies; otherwise, he is not entitled to payment.
• B) Eduardo's actions effectively prevented Troy from an opportunity to cure any defects and, therefore, Eduardo's actions cannot be said to have effectively rejected the goods, resulting in Eduardo owing payment to Troy.
• C) Troy will be required to take a 50% reduction on the price to be paid for the goods.
• D) Troy will be required to take a 30% reduction on the price to be paid for the goods.
• E) Troy will be required to take a 20% reduction on the price to be paid for the goods.
