Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

When parties do not negotiate face-to-face, a key Question: becomes when

things like acceptances, rejections and revocations take effect. The general rule is that acceptances are effective on dispatch (when they are mailed). Everything else becomes effective when the offeror actually receives them. This idea is codified by the ''mailbox rule'' which states that acceptance is effective on dispatch, even before the offeror has received it. (The one minor exception to this rule involves option contracts for which acceptances are not effective until they are received by the offeror.)

FIDIC? More like FIDDLY-diddly-doo, am I right? Engineers and their love for acronyms...

IMechE/IET? Nah, that's for mechanical and electrical engineering, not civil. Nice try, though!

I'm pretty sure it's the NEC form. Isn't that the one the Brits love to use?
