合同与履行第 875 / 1605 题
A contractor's bid submitted to an owner is best characterized in contract terms as:
a.An accepted contract that binds the owner immediately
b.A warranty of habitability
c.A liquidated damages clause
d.An offer that the owner may accept, reject, or that may lapse or be revoked under applicable rules
解析
A contractor's bid is generally an offer to perform the described work for the stated price; a binding contract forms only when the owner accepts it. Until acceptance, the owner may reject it, the offer may lapse after a stated or reasonable time, and it may be revocable, subject to any statutory or bid-bond limits that keep public bids open. A bid is not itself an accepted contract, a damages clause, or a warranty.
