ContractsQuestion 67 of 120

For an acceptance to create a binding contract under the common law 'mirror image' rule, the acceptance must:

a.Add several new favorable terms for the offeree
b.Be delivered only in person
c.Include additional consideration
d.Match the terms of the offer exactly without material changes

Explanation

Under the mirror image rule, acceptance must agree to the offer's terms exactly; a change in material terms is a counteroffer, not an acceptance. This ensures both parties agree to the same bargain.
