The Cardigan family has made a name for themselves in thesweater industry whereby they have designed sweaters for a varietyof uses and for a wide target audience ranging from toddlers tobusiness professionals. Cassandra, whom everyone calls Cassie, isthe CEO of CARDWARE Inc., Camoni is the spokesperson for thesweater line, and Candie models the lines in the professionalsphere. They often use their mother, Camille, as a businessconsultant for input about various new ideas and marketing becauseshe was the manager and agent of her son’s glove company. Cora andCaley, Camille’s two youngest daughters from her second failedmarriage to Bo Jenkins, are co-office managers of theirheadquarters located in Silkadonia.

Camille has developed a good network among those in the fashionindustry, especially the seamstresses who have been hired bywell-known celebrities. One day, Camille spoke with Sonya, theowner and Lead Seamstress for Shazam Clothing Industries. Shazam isa leading manufacturer of unique limited edition clothes inSilkadonia. Camille presented Sonya with her order to sew a limitednumber (500) of hot pink and black machine knitted sweaters with amatching knit hat. Each sweater was to have a number and CandieCardigan’s signature on a label sewn onto the bottom right side ofthe sweater. The hats would have the same label with matchingnumber to its sweater, but sewn on the right side of the turned uphat cuff. Sonya agreed to make each sweater and hat pair for $100.Camille’s plan was to sell each set for $300 thereby making a $200profit per set. While discussing the type of yarn to be used,Sonya’s cell phone rang. Sonya pushed a piece of paper and a colorpalette towards Camille and whispered “write the type of yarn youwant used and exact dye lots” and I will begin work on this rightaway. Camille did as requested, but forgot to give Sonya thetraditional 25% down payment. The down payment has always been usedto purchase the materials.

Sonya completed production of all 500 sweaters in record timeand has presented Camille with an invoice for payment for the same.At the bottom of the invoice, the words, “Payment Due Upon Receipt”were written. Camille changed her mind about wanting the sweatersand hats, as she decided that the items would not be as profitableas originally anticipated. Sonya now comes to the law firm you workfor, P.
