The objective theory of contracts refers to the fact that in determining whether a valid offer exists, the court will mainly consider whether: (A) The offeror and offeree were acting in a calm, reasonable, unemotional manner. (B) The intentions--both obvious and unobserved--of the offeror and offeree match their actions. (C) The offer would seem fair from the perspective of a prudent and reasonable person. (D) A reasonable person, observing the situation, would believe a genuine offer had been made.

(A) The offeror and offeree were acting in a calm, reasonable, unemotional manner.

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

There are different types of contract in business and these includes: fixed-price contract, cost-plus contract, bilateral contract, implies contract, unilateral contract, adhesion contract, unconscionable contract, option contract, express contract, etc.

Mutual assent is a legal term which represents an agreement by both parties to a contract. When two parties to a contract both have an understanding of the parameters, terms and conditions surrounding a contract, it ultimately implies that they are in agreement; this is generally referred to as mutual assent.

Hence, the objective theory of contracts refers to the fact that in determining whether a valid offer exists, the court will mainly consider whether the offeror and offeree were acting in a calm, reasonable, unemotional manner.

Note: the offeror is the party that offers the project to another party while the offeree is the recipient of the offer in a contract.
