	~~=== About contracts ===~~
	In [[w:common law\|common law]] legal systems, a '''[[w:contract\|contract]]''' is an agreement having a lawful object entered into voluntarily by two or more [[w:party (law)\|parties]], each of whom intends to create one or more legal obligations between them.
	::The elements of a contract are "offer" and "acceptance" by "competent persons" having [[w:legal capacity\|legal capacity]] who exchange '''[[w:consideration\|consideration]]''' to create "mutuality of obligation." ( Wikipedia )

	'''[[w:Offer and acceptance\|Offer and acceptance]]''' are elements required for the formation of a legally binding [[w:contract\|contract]]: the expression of an offer to contract on certain terms by one person (the '''[[w:offeror\|offeror]]''') to another person (the '''[[w:offeree\|offeree]]'''), and an indication by the offeree of its acceptance of those terms. The other elements traditionally required for a legally binding contract are (i) '''[[w:consideration\|consideration]]''' and (ii) an '''[[w:intention to be legally bound\|intention to create legal relations]]'''. ( Wikipedia )

	'''[[w:Consideration\|Consideration]]''' is the concept of legal value in connection with contracts. It is anything of value promised to another when making a contract. It can take the form of money, physical objects, services, promised actions, abstinence from a future action, and much more. ( Wikipedia )

A series of three-letter trade terms related to common contractual sales practices, the Incoterms rules are intended primarily to clearly communicate the tasks, costs, and risks associated with the transportation and delivery of goods. ( Wikipedia )

	::* '''[[w:Risk of loss\|Risk of loss]]''' is a term used in the [[w:law\|law]] of [[w:contract\|contract]]s to determine which party should bear the burden of risk for damage occurring to goods after the sale has been completed, but before delivery has occurred. ( Wikipedia )
