This appears to a question for a business law (college or B school) or contracts class in law school. I do not do homework for anyone other than my daughter and since she is pre-med, I can't help her.
However, you need to read UCC-2. Look to the Purchasen Orders and the industry custom.
Read and disect the case and then shepardize it.
Good Luck
