    CoAx and CableCo have entered into a binding written agreement for CableCo to buy 1,000 feet of coaxial cable for $3 per foot. However, CableCo is building a new warehouse, so they currently don’t have anywhere to store the cable.

Karen also reminded him that she give him the authority to use her Nintendo numerous times as a kid and Sunny would say that he will owe her one day for being nice. In this problem, Sunny will have a successful lawsuit because according to the contract they’ve made, it is a liquidated debt. A liquidated debt cannot allow an accord and satisfaction. If Karen is unable to pay the full price to Sunny, she must either pay a lesser amount with a value or have Sunny write down that he allows her to pay at a lesser amount. However, she did not seek either of these solutions. She cannot use a favor she did for Sunny in the past as a value because it is a past consideration, which does not have a bargain for exchange. In addition, the contract satisfies the statute of fraud because under the Uniform Commercial Code, contracts with goods at $500 or more has to be done in writing.
