Question

A counter offer:

Select one:

a. is always a valid form of acceptance

b. is not a valid acceptance

c. is valid acceptance under some circumstances

This is related to business law.

Answer 1

A counter offer is the refusal of the original offer and replacing it with another offer.The counteroffer offers three choices to the original offer:accept , refuse, or make another offer.

When the offeree gives consent to the proposal made by the offerer, the offer is said to be accepted.And when the offer is accepted it becomes valid,
