Bickham v. Washington Bank & Trust Company is a case that involves a formal bilateral contract that was entered into by businessman Bruce Bickham and G. S. Adams, Jr., Vice President of the Washington Bank & Trust Company in 1976 (Cheeseman, 2013).

The language of this bilateral contract translates to what is referred to as a “promise for a promise” whereby no act of performance is necessary to form this kind of contract… and it is an enforceable contract (Cheeseman, 2013).

The WACC for Collinsville, according to our estimations, came up to about 16.22% (Exhibit I). We took the average of the unlevered betas of comparable companies, 0.91, and relevered it according to Dixon’s target capital structure. Dixon’s 5-year historical debt ratio was 27.5%, but this approach would not be reliable due to its steep downturn debt ratio from 51% in 1975 to 6% in 1979. Thus, we thought that the best estimate of the target debt ratio is 15% for calculation of the WACC.

In the Bickham v Washington Bank & Trust Company case it is fact that a contract did exists. The legal question however, would be; is there a breach of this contract. A breach of contract is when one of the parties involved in the contract fail to honor their end of the arrangement or interfere in some way with the other party’s attempt at completing their part. The contract could be either bilateral or unilateral. In order to determine this, the offeree’s acceptance terms must be analyzed. “A bilateral contract is a reciprocal arrangement between two parties where each promises to perform an act in exchange for the other party's act. Each party to a bilateral contract is an obligor (a person who is bound to another) to its own promise, and an obligee (a person to whom another is obligated or bound) on the other party's promise. A bilateral contract specifies a duty to act in exchange for another party's duty to act.” (Staff, 2017). A unilateral contract is when only one party makes a promise to pay the other party. The other party’s acceptance is by performance. Distinguishing between the two is important because only one party is legally bound in a unilateral contract.

When majority of the people think about the contracts, bilateral agreements come to their mind. As in its most basic form, as bilateral contract is an agreement at least between two people or more groups. Most personal and business contracts would fall into this category. Whereas the simplest way to understand unilateral business contract is by analyzing the word 'unilateral.' In its general terms, as unilateral contracts will involve an action undertaken by either one person or by any group alone. However in contract law, unilateral contracts will allow only one person to make an agreement or promise.
