The contract that I will review is a sale of goods contract. This contract is
between two parties, the buyer and the seller. The first part includes both party’s full
residency information. This agreement contains nine sections and each section will
explain particular clause. As you review this contract, you will recognize that it is clear
and definitive. This contract includes legal matters that simplify commercial
transactions. According to the text book, “The primary goal of the UCC is to simplify and
streamline commercial transactions, allowing parties to form sales and lease contracts
without observing the same degree of formality used in forming other types of
contracts.” (Chapter 18 Introduction). There are three clauses in this contract, the first
clause explains the risk of loss which includes that the seller is responsible of any
casualty to the goods regardless of the cause until the time of receipt and acceptation
by the buyer. The next clause is the right of inspection when the buyer has the right to
inspect the goods as soon as possible before acceptance or payment. The last clause is
revocation of acceptance when the goods are non-conforming to the contract between
the parties.
