Consideration 对价
Consideration is a central concept in mon law of contracts: it is value paid for something (as an act or forbearance or the promise thereof). Consideration is needed for a valid contract. An example; If you sign a contract with a man, agreeing to buy his car for an amount of money, his consideration is the car, which he promises to give to you. Your consideration is the money that you pay for the car. However, a contract saying that he would give you his car for nothing would not be valid per se, because you aren't giving him any consideration. Not doing an act (forbearance) can be consideration, such as “I will pay you $1,000 not to build a road next to my fence.” Sometimes consideration is “nominal ”,meaning it is stated for form only: for instance,on March 6, 1995, herlands Group (ING) purchased Baring Brothers pany Bank for one pound sterling, in exchange for taking on all Barings’ liabilities.
